1 Criminal Procedure Outline I. BASIC PRINCIPLES II. SEARCH & SEIZURE (9/7-10/19) 1. INTRODUCTION TO THE FOURTH AMENDMENT a.

. Reasonableness Clause: Right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures shall not be violated, i. The People - US v. Verdugo-Urquidez (1990) (34) [warrantless search of s home in Mexico] Maj (Rehn): 4A meant to apply to national community. Non-resident alien on foreign soil not protected. 1. Dis (Marshall/Brennan): 4A is unavoidable correlative of govt enforcement of crim law. b. Warrant Clause: and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the person or thing to be seized. i. Formerly treated as dominant 4A clause. Post WWII, warrantless searches presumed unconstitutional. This is changing. 2. WHAT IS A SEARCH? a. Search Defn: an action by the state that violates and individuals reasonable expectation of privacy (REOP) i. Where no REOP, no 4A protection. b. Katz v. US (1967) (38) [warrantless bugging of phone booth exterior] Hold: unlawful (warrantless) seizure of words i. Two-Part Test for REOP (Harlans Conc (41)): 1. exhibits an actual (subjective) of privacy a. Must take action to manifest this expectation 2. Society recognizes this expectation as reasonable ii. Applied in Katz: in private phone booth, pulls door closed. c. Katz Applications: No REOP where (a) exposes information to public space; (b) limited intrusions i. Naked Eye: generally lawful in public space 1. Exception: cop is trespassing or someplace unlawfully. 2. Open Field Doctrine: cop may trespass in open fields, even where fenced and posted. (some states differ) ii. Abandonment of Property: inconsistent w/ subjective REOP 1. denial of ownership may constitute abandonment. iii. Manipulation of Luggage: 1. Bond v. US (2000) (58): agents manipulation of stowed luggage exceeds casual contact expected from other passengers. iv. Consensual Electronic Surveillance/Exposure to 3rd Parties: 1. US v. White (1971) (50) [ converses w/ wired govt informant] hold: No Reop for information voluntarily given to 3rd parties. a. Harlan Dis: should not be forced to risk hidden recordings. REOP in evanescence of words. 2. US v. Gonzales (9th 2003) (51) [s activity caught on camera installed in hospital mailroom. Room was quasi-public space w/ large windows].

2 v. Financial Records: if accessible to bank, they are accessible to govt. 1. Patriot Act 412-16 permits access to records of US persons in connection to terrorism/intelligence investigations. vi. Pen Registers: 1. ECPA (1986): court order authorized if register likely to uncover information relevant to crim investigation. 2. PATRIOT ACT213 permits use of Pen Registers to obtain telephone numbers, email addresses, and urls. vii. Trash: 1. California v. Greenwood (1988) (54) Hold: no REOP in trash put out for collection. a. Policy: (a) slippery slope line drawing re: where REOP in trash ends; (b) abandonment theory 2. Some states disagree viii. Technologies 1. Dog Sniff (low-tech): US v. Place (1983) (61) Hold: not a search(a) sniff is limited intrusion; (b) no REOP in hidden contraband and sniff can only detect contraband. 2. Telescope (low-tech): Taborta (2d 1980) (76) Hold: Search where cop uses telescope to look from building A into 17th storey window of building B. 3. Heat Sensors (hi-tech): Kyllo v. US (2001)(65) [heat sensors outside house detect escaped heat from mj grow lights inside house] Hold (Scalia): Search where cops obtain by sense-enhancing technology info regarding home interior not otherwise obtainable where tech is not in public use. a. Policy: protect intimate details of home life. b. Q: is this actually about surprise? What happens ix. Aerial Surveillance (helicopters, hi-tech photography) 1. California v. Ciraolo (1986)(56): Aerial Surviellance of fenced-in yard OK since cop has any member of public could fly over and get a view. 2. Dow Chem v. US (1986) (57) Maj Hold: aerial photographs of protected industrial complex from navigable airspace using hi-tech camera is not a search. 3. Florida v. Riley (1989) (57) Maj: hovering helicopter not a search. a. OCs Conc: REOP should depend on whether public ordinarily had access, not whether legally or technically possible. x. Electronic Beepers: 1. US v. Knotts (1983) (72) Hold: using beeper inside chemical bin (w/ sellers consent) to track s public movements is not a search. 2. US v. Karo (1984) (73) Hold: using beeper to determine whether chemical bin is in private place (home) is a search. a. Neither (a) beeper in bin or (b) tracking outside home are search. Only exploitation of the device to monitor private home is the problem (75). xi. Policy Note: 1. Why REOP expansion: (i) courts unsympathetic in drug cases; (ii) trust police discretion; (iii) believe in need for effective law enforcement. 2. AS: may be better to call these intrusions searches and then argue over reasonableness. a. Con: kills bright-line rule that warrantless searches are per se unreasonable.

3 3. Technology: What happens as use expands? Are these cases really about surprise? 3. TENSION BETWEEN THE REASONABLENESS AND THE WARRANT CLAUSE a. Per Se Rule: Warrantless searches are per se unreasonable subject to a few established exceptions (Katz) i. Scalia: Per se rule is so riddled with exceptions that it is basically unrecognizable. ii. In sum, Courts have expressed a preference for warrants, but are willing to consider case-by-case circumstances. b. Warrant Requirement Policy: i. Requires objective inferences be drawn by a detached magistrate rather than the officer engaged in crime fighting (Johnson (1948)(86)) ii. Antecedent requirements prevent ex post justification iii. Create written record for review iv. Reduces public perception of unlawful police behavior v. Procedural hurdle may deter unlawful searches and seizures. c. Negative Consequesnces of Indiscriminate searches: (Amsterdam (88)) 1. exposes people and possessions to govt intrusion without good reason 2. potential for capricious executive action. 4. DEMONSTRATING PROBABLE CAUSE (see problem set 1) a. PC defn: Fair Probability that search will uncover evidence of wrongdoing i. Federal PC: Less than a preponderance (50%) ii. Some states (NY incl.): PC is a preponderance. b. Std of Appellate Review: Did magistrate have substantial basis for issuing the warrant i. Spinelli: review findings of historical fact only for clear error and give wight to inferences drawn from those facts by local judges and officers. Nominally de novo. Deferential in reality. c. Old Test: Spinelli v. US (1969) (91) citing Aguillar: Two-Part test for demonstrating PC in a warrant: i. (1) Basis of Knowledge (BK) warrant application must set forth the underlying circumstances necessary to enable the magistrate to judge the validity of the informers conclusion (how did source obtain information? Saw it/heard from friend) 1. If officers knowledge: is this sufficient to make out PC? 2. If informant: go to veracity. 3. Nb: Corroboration of copious details may also support BK (Draper) ii. (2) Veracity (V)- credibility of information source 1. Police officer presumed honest in affidavit 2. Previous reliable tips 3. Paid informants and anonymous tips are presumptively unreliable. 4. Anonymous tips: generally low veracity. a. Criteria increasing veracity: repeated over phone; face to face tip; caller ID; voice recording (JL v. Florida). 5. Corroboration of innocent details law makes leap of faith a. Bad: Oak Tree Problem: A killed B under the oak tree. See, heres the oak tree. b. Better: facts not readily known, incl. future predictions about 3rd party behavior (Draper: PC where gets off train as described w/ suitcase) 6. Identified citizen informants are presumptively reliable.

4 7. Confessions of co-participant needs no corroboration. d. Current Test: Illinois v. Gates (1983) (99) [anonymous tip re: couples odd plane/car travel and drug sales] i. Hold: Totality of Circumstances test for PC: Whether, given all circumstances set forth in affidavit, including V and BK, there is a fair probability that contraband or evidence will be found in a particular place. 1. Veracity and Basis of Knowledge are intertwined factors illuminating PC. Deficiency in one may be compensated for by the other. ii. Policy: seeks practical, common sense judgment of magistrate. 1. provide for flexibility where, e.g. very detailed tip from anonymous caller. iii. Std of appellate review: substantial basis. iv. Dis (Stevens): bad decision in this case where anonymous tip contained an error, and actual behavior appeared less culpable. e. Standard of Probability i. Multiple Suspects 1. Hypo: 10 people, no id, standing over a dead body. Can cops arrest everybody? a. AS: given certainty that crime has been committed, failure to detain means letting killer go free. Unacceptable. [me: there is no limiting principle, here] 2. Maryland v. Pringle (2003) (121) Rehn Hold: PC to arrest all car occupants where search reveals cocaine in car. a. Car occupants often engaged in a common enterprise. People who drive in cars w/ drugdealers likely to have knowledge. b. Q. what about child/elderly occupant? 3. Contra: a. Ybarra (cited in Pringle): Absent individualized suspicion, warrant to search tavern does not extend to search of partrons. b. Di Re (1948): inference that everyone at crime scene is a party to it disappears where informer singles s.o. out. ii. Staleness of Information 1. US v. Harris (11th 1994) (124) Hold: review of staleness challenges is case-bycase; look at maturity of information, nature of crime (ongoing?), habits of , character of items, nature and function of premises searched. PROBABLE CAUSE, PARTICULARITY AND REASONABLENESS a. Permissible Evidence: Warden v. Hayden (1967) (126) [Old FIC rule based on 4A protection of private property] i. Hold: Abolishes mere evidence rule (that search could only be for Fruits, Instrumentalities of Contraband (FIC), not evidence of crime). 1. Policy: (1) difficult to determine what is FIC and what is mere evidence. (2) no greater intrusion on privacy) 2. Impact: once PC satisfied, govt power to intrude and search is great. b. 3rd Party Premises: Zurcher v. Stanford Daily (1978) (129) [cops get warrant to search newspaper office, looking for photos to identify student assailant suspects] i. Dist/App Hold: 4A does not permit warrant to search premises of non-crim 3rd party, unless clear that subpoena would not be obeyed. ii. Scotus Maj: Warrants permissible for any property, regardless of owner/occupant, where there is PC that FIC or evidence will be found. iii. Policy: 1. 9th Cir rule would drastically reduce search warrants.

5.

5 2. Criminals would hide evidence w/ 3rd parties. 3. No info re: who innocent 3rd parties might be. iv. Effect: Congress passes Privacy Protection Act (1980), limiting govt searches of newsrooms/newspeopleOnly for FIC unless (a) PC to believe 3rd party is involved in crime, or (b) quick seizure of materials is nec to prevent death or serious injury to s.o. c. Particularity Requirement i. Intro: 1. Two types: as to crime; as to evidence sought 2. Specificity required depends on: nature of property to be searched, what cop should be expected to know based on info uncovered through reasonable efforts. 3. Policy: limits officer discretion; pin down copes to facts establishing PC; prevent expansion of search while in progress. (limit discretion and reduce rummaging) ii. Maryland v. Garrison (1987) (133) [warrant specifies 3rd floor apt, but there are two apts on 3rd floor; Cops attempted to ascertain number of apartments. Search of wrong apt yields contraband and arrest] 1. Hold: Search OK sufficiently particular based on evidence available after reasonable investigation. 2. Police Error OK where cops act Reasonable and with Good Faith. a. Had cops become aware of error, continued search is unreasonable. iii. Andresen v. Maryland (1976) (138) [ convicted of real estate fraud. Warrant specified many documents then included hanging vague clause (fnb)] 1. Hold: Maj reads problematic phrase out of warrantso long as it was not acted upon. 2. Judicial officials must take to ensure that searches are carried out with minimum intrusion. 3. Brennan Dis: analyze warrant in terms of actual effect it had on executing officials; dont just use grammatical magic. iv. NB re: Suppression: on overly-broad warrant, how much evidence is suppressed? If only suppressed outside of scope, then creates incentive for fishing b/c can always give back useless items. d. Unreasonable Intrusions: Medical Procedures i. Winston v. Lee (1985) (142) [cops want to undergo surgery to remove bullet needed for evidence] 1. Hold: warrant invalid where degree of intrusion is unreasonable a. Balance: uncertain degree of risk vs. had other evidence. 6. EXECUTION OF WARRANTS a. Time of Execution: Most jurisdictions require-i. Execution within limited time of warrant issuance ii. No nighttime searches absent special circumstances b. Notice Knock and Announce required i. FRCrP 41: (a) must serve notice re: search and (b) must leave inventory of property seized. ii. Exceptions: 1. Patriot Act 213: Permits Sneak and Peak Warrants- Cops can engage in covert searches, provide delayed notice. a. Unlawful- cops search prior to warrant to determine whether to obtain warrant.

6 2. No Knock and Announce where a. already aware of cops presence b. Exigent circumstances: risk of physical harm or destruction of evidence c. Use of Extraordinary Force: (e.g. battering rams) OK where circumstances make reasonable; Unreasonable if circumstances do not justify. (Banks (152) 15-20 seconds is sufficient wait before battering door in drug search). d. Scope and Intensity of Searchi. Can search wherever PC exists to believe object of search could reasonably be. ii. Occupants may be detained during search. iii. Unreasonably Intrusive: Hummel-Jones v. Strope (8th 1994) (159): 2am search/detention at birthing clinic. 7. ARRESTS AND MATERIAL WITNESSES a. Arrest Warrant v. Search Warrant: i. Arrest warrant: specifies PC for particular person linked to particular crime ii. Search warrant: PC that (or object) found in particular location at particular time. b. Arrest vs. Summons: Atwater v. Lago Vista (2001) (167): Custodial arrest always reasonable if cop has PC of criminal violation. c. Review of Warrantless Arrest: County of Riverside (1991) (1975): 4A requires objective and impartial PC review of warrantless arrest within 48 hrs (Gerstein hearing). d. Arrests in Public: i. US v. Watson (1976) (168): Warrantless arrest in public place is reasonable if cops have PC. Exigent circumstances unnecessary. 1. Policy: staleness & exigency 2. Marshal Dis: Maj is stretching to get this result, broad exception. Policies are rationally flawed. 3. NB: Better to have a warrant; magistrates PC determination gets deferential review; also warrant can be used for extradition if suspect flees. e. Use of Force During Arrest: i. Tennessee v. Garner (1985) (172): Use of deadly force in apprehension only justified where PC that suspect poses significant threat of death or injury to officer or others. ii. Factors to Consider (Graham v. Connor (1989) (172)): severity of crime; immediate threat to safety of officers or others; actively resisting arrest or attempting to evade arrest. iii. Forrester v. City of San Diego(9th 1994) (173) [protesters removed with pain compliance] 1. Hold: Cops not required to use lease intrusive means. a. Nature and quality of intrusion not that bad b. Govt has legitimate interest in quickly dispersing protestors w/ least risk of injury to cops and others. iv. Contra: Headwaters Forest Defense (9th 2000)(175): Pepper spraying chained enviros is unreasonable. (pepper spray long-lasting; protesters posed no safety threat) v. Adjudicating Claims: adjudicated under 4A reasonableness standard, 1983 action 1. Qualified Immunity: govt agent immune from damage suits if had a reasonable belief that conduct was lawful at time actions were taken (even if actions were unreasonable or otherwise 4A violative) a. Immunity if broken rule of law was not clearly established 2. Combating Qualified Immunity: a. Cop knew action was wrong,

7 b. Argue QI allows failure to clarify law, providing no guidance for future action. f. Arrests in Home i. Peyton v. New York (1980) (182) [Scotus reverses conviction b/c cops crossed threshold of home w/o arrest warrant] 1. Hold: Absent exigent circumstances, arrest warrant required to enter home and effect an arrest. a. Policy: Home is private, protected from govt intrusion. b. Violation constitutes illegal search, not illegal arrest if theres PC. 2. Arrest Warrant: less power than SW (does not specify location); thus can only enter home if reason to believe at home a. Split over whether reason to believe is same or less than PC. ii. Doorway Arrests: 1. Split- some say arrest upon opening door is public, other say in home and warrant required. 2. Common Hallways: treated as public space 3. Homeless People: Dont have a home. Some courts read broadly if person has established living space. 4. Hotels: private home so long as rightful possession (Morales) iii. 3rd Party Homeowners 1. Steagald v. US (1981)(186) Hold: Search warrant nec to look for suspect in 3rd party home, unless exigent circumstances or consent. a. Nb: this protects homeowner rights, not criminals rights-Homeowner contraband untouchable w/o search warrant) b. Does not apply in case of co-tenants iv. Standing to Assert Unlawful Search/Arrest- In 3rd party home, suspect only has standing w/ REOP 1. Overnight Guest: Minnesota v. Olsen (1990) (187): Overnight guest has REOP in 3rd party home; Arrest warrant required. 2. Temporary Visitors: Minnesota v. Carter (1998) (188) a. Rehn Hold: No REOP for temporary visitors i. tenuous connection to house ii. limited relationship to owner iii. Business transaction (drugs) b. Scalia/Thomas Con: 4A only protects in own home c. Kennedy Con: Almost all social guests have LEOP, these were business guests. d. Dis (4 justices): All invited guests have REOP, regardless of purpose. (Can argue this in state court) g. Material Witnesses i. Intro: 18 USC 3144: Govt has power to detain a material witness with showing 1. (1) that it may become impracticable to secure his presence by subpoena. 2. (2) PC to believe person has material evidence/testimony a. Nb: while material is stricter than relevant, may not have to be admissible; prob not same material standard as in prosecutorial provision of exculpatory evidence. 3. Immediate release if witness testimony can be secured by deposition. 4. All states have similar statute. In most, no limit on permissible length of detention of witness who cannot pay required bond.

8 ii. Limits: 1. No Constitutional right to compensation for time in confinement (Hurtado (1973): $1 compensation for 150days confinement not a taking). 2. US v. Awadallah (2d 2003) (190) Hold: arrest and detention of grand jury witness is lawful due to procedural safeguards in place. a. Protections noted: i. Judicial review of detention at bail hearingsgovt burden to establish no alternative to secure appearance/testimony. ii. 3144 applies to GJ proceedings iii. can move to preserve testimony by deposition iv. Rule 46(h)(2) requires bi-weekly report on why continued detention. iii. Policy: Material witness is mega-important; Carte blanche detention during investigations; No PC guilt showing required. 8. STOP AND FRISK a. Intro: Most common form of interaction between cops and citizens. b. Terry v. Ohio (1968) (200)[veteran cop spies 3 men casing a store; stops, frisks, find gun] i. Warran Hold: Stop & Frisk may occur on basis of Reasonable Suspicion ii. Reasonable Suspicion std: Based on objective facts of he moment which can be articulated at a suppression hearing. Case-by-case analysis, more than officer hunch. iii. Harlan Conc: Stop and Frisk are separate acts must be independently valid. 1. (1) Stop must be lawful, based on RS a. may be forcible; stop implies force/against will of stoppee. 2. (2) Frisk is automatic where violent crime suspected. But NOT a search; device for cops protection. iv. White Conc: Constitution permits cops to address anyone 1. Stoppee does not have to answer; can walk awaytime limit to Terry stop. 2. Refusal to answer does not convert RS to PC. v. Douglas Dis: this is 4A intrusion, and 4A only recognizes PC standard for invasion. vi. Policy: 1. Balance need to investigate/crime fight/public safety vs. govt intrusion 2. Necessary to keep S&F activity within purview of 4A. 3. Con: diminished std for S&S; negative impact on race relations. c. Terry Progeny: i. Adams v. Williams (1972) (209) [cop w/ informant tip (of unknown BK) of gun and drug possession in car, crosses car threshold to remove hidden gun] Rehn Hold: Conviction reinstated; Terry expansion 1. Cop crosses threshold of car to frisk (more intrusive; arguably a search) 2. RS for can be based on 2nd hand information. a. Terry based on inferences by veteran cop. b. Here: anonymous informant tip is sufficient to justify RS Stop, even where insufficient to justify PC search/arrest. 3. Brennan/Friendly Dis: This is expansion of Frisk from violence to possession. a. Terry should not apply to drug crimes where frisk likey to be object of stop, rather than incident to stop. ii. Bright Line Rule: Traffic Stops 1. Driver: Officer in course of legal stop has automatic right to order driver out of the vehicle (PA v. Mimms (1977) (209))

9 a. Rehn Policy: (a) reduces likelihood of concealed attack; (b) reduce traffic injuries. b. Marshall Dis: Terry requires nexus between Frisk and self-protection; Stevens Dis: traffic safety arg is unpersuasive. 2. Auto Passengers: Mimms applies to passengers, too. (MD v. Wilson) a. Policy: passengers increase danger to cops; already stopped anyway. b. Stevens Dis: innocent passengers should not have to suffer indignity. 3. Tinted Windows: Cops can open door, w/o breaking place, to visually inspect for weapons or danger (Stanfield (4th 1997) (215) 4. Government Regulation: Cop may break plane to move papers blocking VIN # access (NY v. Class 1986) a. Conc: 4A issue is whether efforts to inspect VIN were reasonable. b. Policy: Regulatory power over highway outweighs s interest in protected area. c. Effect: Substantial diminished REOP in automobiles (DEOP). 5. Hypo Problems: Limits of the DEOP Jurisprudence? a. Automatic right to frisk trunk/glove box for concealed person/weapon?; Frisk glove box for license/registration? b. Solution: is there a less intrusive means of obtaining information (e.g. issue ticket based on car license plate)? d. Detention of Occupants During a Search i. Residents: Michigan v. Summers (1981) (217): Cops w/ search warrant can detain residents during warrant execution. 1. Policy: prevent flight; less intrusive than Terry b/c occurs in home ii. Non-Residents: US v. Fountain (6th 1993) (217): under Summers cops can detain nonresidents while executing search warrant. iii. Forcible Detention: Meulher v. Mena (2005) (sm16)[cops search alleged gang house w/ swat team; handcuff sleeping occupants, detain at gunpoint in garage] 1. Rehn Hold (5-4): a. Detentions only slight additional intrusions i. Policy: prevent flight; minimize risk of harm to cops; facilitate orderly search. b. Cops authorization to detain is categorical, does not depend on proof to justify. c. Use of Reasonable Force inherent in Summers 2. Kennedy Conc: Use of force must be objectively reasonable under circumstances; 3. Dissent (Stevens + 3): should give deference to jury determination of excessive force; Should use Graham Test: (a) severity of crime; (b) is detainee subject of investigation; (c) is detainee of immediate threat; (d) is detainee resisting? 4. All: here, initial application of force ok; split over reasonableness thereafter. e. The Line Between Stop and Encounter i. Free to Leave Test: US v. Mendenhall (1980) (217) No seizure where acquiesces to examination of id/ticket, questioning in private office, inspection of handbag. 1. Stevens Conc: 4A seizure (Stop) if, in view of all circumstances, reasonable person would have believed not free to leave. a. Force criteria: threatening presence of several officers, display of weapons, physical touching, language/tone of voice suggesting compulsion.

10 2. Florida v. Royer (1983) (218) Hold: Seizure (Arrest) where (a) cops tell theyre DEA, (b) asked to go to private room, (c) ticket and id confiscated, (d) luggage retrieved, (e) no indication of free to leave. a. White maj: where search based on consent, govt has burden of proving consent freely given and not just submission to authority. 3. Mendenhall versus Royer: perhaps confiscated ticket tipped the balance. 4. Lower/State Ct Applications: a. Motorist stopped where cop persists in telling him to roll down window after refusal (Johnson v. Campbell (3rd) b. Failure to return necessary docs probably always a stop (Jefferson (8th 1990) c. Airports Encounters: Split where cops tell they think hes smuggling and ask to search bags (Might depend on advisory of right to refuse). 5. Factory Sweeps: INS v. Delgado (1984 (221) [INS guards at exits, worker to worker interrogations] a. Hold: Scotus Maj adopts Mendenhall Test. Sweep OK. b. Dis (Bren/Marsh): Posted Guards, wholesale interrogation, immigrant mentality made this hella coercive. c. Analysis: what facts are needed to cross from non-coercive to coercive? 6. Street Encounters: US v. Cardozo (1st 1995) (223) [no stop where late at night, cop in car follows black kid, tells him come here.] a. Seizure/Encounter Test: Whether govt conduct indicated interference w/ s liberty so that not free to leave. Need Objective manifestation that official power prevents from leaving. i. Here: important that cop remained in car 7. In Essence: Test is whether cops are acting coercively, not whether reasonable person would feel free to leave. (otherwise, most encounters would be stops). a. Bostick: Reasonable Person is an Innocent Person (presumably freer to leave than a guilty person) mere fact that did not feel free to leave does not mean hes seized. 8. Suspect Refuses to Submit: CA v. Hodari (1991) (232) [ flees cops, moves to suppress cocaine found] a. Scalia hold: Where non-physical show of force, std is (1) Reasonable person would not feel free to leave and (2) actually submits. (Mendenhall is Nec but not Suff) b. Stevens Dis: makes no sense to have different standards for physical vs. non-physical show of authority. ii. NYS Alt Rule: People v. DeBoeur 1. (1) Approach w/ request for Info (need a reason, but not RS) 2. (2) Non-forcible stop (based on founded suspicion) implies can ignore 3. (3) Forcible Stop (Terry) 4. (4) Arrest (Terry) f. Standard of Reasonable Suspicion i. Defn: Based on totality of circumstances, officer must have particularized and objective basis for suspectingthe person stopped of criminal activity. (Cortez 1981 (245)). 1. Possible Factors: (a) pattern of activity; (b) suspect unfamiliar with surroundings; (c) activity occurs in day/night; (d) high crime area; (e) flight; (f)

11 criminal record consistent with activity; (g) attempts to evade police surveillance; (h) implausible answers during encounter; (i) activity fits Profile ii. Anonymous Tips: BK & V important; RS permits Lesser Quantity of Evidence 1. Alabama v. White (1990) (239) Hold: Officer must significantly corroborate anonymous tip. a. Here: Prediction of future conduct (cars destination) is significant. 2. Florida v. JL (2000) (241) [anonymous tip re: gun possession] a. Maj Hold: Accurate description of readily observable facts by anonymous tip does not show knowledge of concealed crim activity. Insufficient for RS. i. Refuses to uphold firearm exception too much risk of harassment by 3rd parties. b. Kennedy Conc: Valuing Anonymous Tips criteria increasing veracity. i. Repeated over phone; face to face tip; caller ID; Voice recording iii. Race as Factor: US v. Weaver (8th 1992) (258) [young black man stopped after disembarking in Kansas City] 1. Hold: RS cannot be solely race-based, but permissible as a one of several factors. 2. NB: Very Difficult Proofmust show (1) iv. Profiling: US v. Sokolow (1989) (261)[Terry Stop RS based on drug courier profile] 1. Maj Hold: All factors are relevant; whether or not they combine in a profile makes no difference. 2. Dis: allows stop based on profile, not individualized suspicion. 3. Arvizu (2002): assess factors as a totality, not individually. 4. v. Past Crimes: Terry stops permitted on basis of RS of past felony committed. (Hensley) vi. Unprovoked Flight: always probative of wrongdoing, but no per se rule; flight is different than refusal to cooperate. (Illinois v. Wardlow scouts finds RS in combination of flight and high crime area; Stevens Dis: this behavior is smart thing to do, not RS] 1. Hypo: Silence in face of question? May suggest guilt. g. Limited/Extended Searches Under Terry i. Plain Touch Doctrine: Minnesota v. Dickerson (1993) (265) [cop finds crack rock during frisk] Hold: Terry Stop does not permit Search for Evidence 1. Impermissible Searches: a. Squeezing small lump in pocket that clearly wasnt weapon (Dickerson) b. Shaking box found in s pocket having concluded could not contain a weapon (Miles 9th 2001) c. Probing paper bag found in jacket (Schiavo 1st 1991) 2. Lawful Frisk: Removing hard object from sock reasonable officer could believe was a weapon (Swann 4th 1998) ii. Protective Searches/Sweeps: 1. Michigan v. Long (1983) (268) [ out of car; cop uses flashlight to frisk car, sees hunting knife, protective searches car, finds drugs] a. Hold: 4A permits limited examination of area from which a person, who police reasonable believe dangerous, might gain control of weapon. b. AS: good rule; arg doesnt apply to facts of Long. See People v. Torrez: NYCtApp reverses conviction under same facts as Long.

12 2. US v. Brown (8th 1990): Upholds search of locked glove box based on RS of drug activity. 3. Protective Searches of Other People: Circuit split a. Automatic Companion Rule authorizes automatic frisk (9th Berryhill); But See b. Automatic companion searches inconsistent w/ case-by-case under Terry (8th Bell) 4. Protective Sweeps of Premises: Michigan v. Buie (1990)(271)[sweep of premises following arrest of at home finds contraband not weapon/danger] a. Hold: Protective Sweeps justified if RS that area harbors person posing danger to officers. i. May only extend to cursory inspection of hiding places, lasting no longer than nec to dispel danger. b. Brennan Dis: Reasonableness has become primary touchstone in 4A analysis. Terry exception is not very broad. h. Brief and Limited Detentions: Line Between Stop and Arrest i. Intro: Function of Force over Time determines when Stop becomes Arrest; Reasonableness is Std. 1. Hypo: Cops engage in some degree of forcible conduct, args arrest w/o PC Cops will arg PC, and in alternative RS plus frisk evidence (gun) to create PC. ii. Forced Movement in the Field: 1. Forced Movement to Custodial Area: PC required to force suspect to move to further investigation or apply more pressure (J. White in Royer) a. Investigative detention must be temporary; methods must be least intrusive. 2. Identification Purposes: Stop plus transport to crime scene for ID purposes is permissible Terry Stop (Hicks (NY 1986)) iii. Permissible Techniques w/ RS: Where reasonably related to RS 1. ID Request and Conduct Questioning a. Demanding ID: Hibbel v. Sixth Jud Dist NV (2004) (sm23) [NV stat authorizes arrest for refusal to identify self] Hold: State interest in ID sufficient to justify forced production. 2. Canine Sniff (Bloomfield (8th 1994)) 3. Limited Field Sobriety tests iv. Impermissible w/o PC: 1. More demanding roadside sobriety (some courts) 2. Search for Evidence v. Investigation of Other Crimes: OK where RS 1. Unlawful where no RS: a. Investigation for Drugs subsequent to traffic stop not OK (Salzano) b. Continued detention unlawful once computer check complete (Santiago) c. RS stop for alien transport ends once search finds no aliens (MillanDiaz) 2. Consensual Encounter After Stop Ended: Robinette (1996) (277)[ stopped for speeding, given warning, then cop asks about drugs, asks to search] a. Hold: rejects bright line rule that must be told stop over and right to leave. vi. Interrogation and Fingerprinting

9.

13 1. Interrogation: PC required to detain and forcibly transport to station house for questioning (Dunaway v. NY (2000) (1979)) 2. Fingerprinting: a. Davis v. Mississippi (1969)(279) [mass round-up of black kids for fingerprinting at stationhouse]: Detention and transport to stationhouse requires PC. b. Hayes v. Florida (1985)(279)Field fingerprinting OK; minor intrusion. vii. Time Limits on Terry Stops: Suspect can be detained for reasonable amount of time 1. US v. Sharpe (1985) (280): Rejects hard and fast time limits a. Analysis: did police diligently pursue investigation through means likely to confirm or dispel suspicions quickly. 2. Subsequent Cases: uphold Terry stops up to 90 minutes. viii. Show of Force: Terry permits force sufficient to reasonably effect stop. 1. Fact-specific inquiry: must be very excessive to be unreasonable; cases permit up to 90 minutes. a. OK: tackle, temporary cuff, etc. b. Excessive: Oliveira- massive cop presence/interrogation w/ guns drawn to stop out-of-state vehicle of black guys w/ expensive camera. SEARCH INCIDENT TO ARREST; PRETEXTUAL STOPS AND ARRESTS; PLAIN VIEW SEARCHES a. Search Incident to Arrest (SITA) i. Intro: Arrest gets automatic, warrantless search of person and AIC ii. Spacial Limit: Area of Immediate Control (AIC) 1. Chimel v. CA (1969) (294) [court reverses broader Rabinowitz rule allowing search of general area] AIC is case-by-case analysis. a. Policy: Exigency-protect officer, prevent evidence destruction 2. Former AICs: Courts will allow cop to search former AIC, even after suspect is removed (Abdul-Saboor (DC 1996) (298)) a. Policy: dont want to force cops to maintain dangerous situation just to get search permission. (In 4A language, search is reasonable) 3. Moveable AIC/Grab Area: Cops may not create grab area to get extra search (Perea 2d 1993[ordered near bag, arrested , searched bag]) 4. Post-Arrest Movements: Moving AIC permissible where reasonable-a. Washington v. Chrisman (1982) (298) goes to room dorm room to get ID, cop remained outside room threshold, saw drug paraphernalia] i. Scotus Hold: Arresting cop may maintain custody over moving and search subsequent AIC ii. Wash Sup Ct (on remand): No Moveable AIC under State Law b. US v. Butler (10th 1992): Moveable AIC OK where ground had glass and cop told to go put shoes on. Protecting health and safety of iii. Exigent Circumstances: Search permissible where risk of evidence destruction 1. EC Test (Vale): a. (a) reas belief that 3rd parties were in dwelling, AND b. (b) reas belief that 3rd parties aware of arrest and might destroy evidence. iv. Protective Sweeps: Maryland v. Buie (1990)(301): Protective sweep permissible as a quick and limited search of premises, incident to arrest and conducted to protect safety of officers and others. (Expanding Chimel beyond s reach). 1. Policy: safety, not exigent circumstance. Balance s remaining privacy

14 a. But See Arizona v. Hicks (1980) [bullet shot through ceiling; cops in upstairs apt, examine stolen stereo for serial number] Impermissible to search for evidence, regardless of minimal intrusion. v. Sequence of Arrest and Search: Arrest on heels of search OK; However, search cannot provide PC for arrest (Rawings v. Kentucky (1980)(301)) vi. Search of Person: 1. US v. Robinson (1973) (303) [ arrested, cop finds cigarette box containing heroin during pat-down] a. Hold: Custodial arrest permits full SITA of person, regardless of fear of danger. b. Powell Conc: once arrested, search effects no further intrusion (removes danger from calculus) vii. Custodial Arrest for Minor Offenses: Atwater v. City of Lago Vista (2001)(308) [soccer mom seatbelt case] 1. Hold: 4A permits warrantless arrest for traffic violation. All custodial arrests get full search. 2. Dis: PC should be nec but not suff to overcome 4A reasonableness std. 3. NB: These two cases (Robinson and Atwater) have expansive consequences viii. Arrests and Automobiles 1. US v. Belton (1981)(315) [at time of search all four passengers were 100 ft from car] Hold: Lawful arrest of individual in automobile permits search of entire passenger compartment. (not trunk) 2. Thornton (2004) (sm8) [ arrested outside of car] Rehn Hold: Belton applies even where is arrested outside of car. a. Scalia Conc: would limit Belton to cases where reas belief that evidence relevant to crime of arrest is inside vehicle. ix. Summons vs. Arrest: SITA doctrine does not permit search where cop could have arrested but instead issue summons; Statute overturned. (Knowles (1988)) 1. Policy: if cop wants search, can arrest, or else use Terry for frisk. x. AIC Container Searches: Many courts rule permissible 1. Hotel dresser drawer search while is handcuffed is OK (Palumbo 8th) 2. Containers within grab area may be searched (Johnson 5th) 3. Briefcase search OK (Morales 8th distinguishing Chadwick based on time) 4. But See Chadwick (1977): arrestees footlocker seized but not searchable b/c locker at police station, and no risk of destruction. b. Pretextual Stops i. Wren v. US (1996) (324) [cops stop black kids for speeding, searches for crack] 1. Hold: Custodial arrest is permissible whenever a reasonable officer could have arrested for the arguable pre-textual offence. a. Rejects s proposed reasonable cop std; doesnt want to litigate govt motives and reas cop behavior. 2. Policy: Ct falls back on (hard-to-prove) 14A suits to correct racism ii. Related to Profiling DebateAtwater, Belton and Wren means cops can arrest anyone for anything and get a search for evidence. iii. Problem with Equal Protection Suit 1. must show disparate treatment AND intent 2. Probably $$$ damages only. No conviction reversal. c. Plain View Searches i. Intro: Elements of valid Plain View Search

15 1. Cops must be at site legally 2. Incriminating character of evidence must be readily apparent ii. Inadvertance not required; cop may expect item to be there (Horton v. California (1990) [In executing warrant for stolen property, cop on the lookout for weapons] 1. Policy: no additional intrusion if cop already has lawful right to search 2. Problem: risk that cops with PC for minor offense will get warrant to search for evidence of bigger crime. iii. Plain View Search is Bright Line Exception 1. Arizona v. Hicks- No inspection of stereo where only RS (not PC) that it was stolen. a. Policy: refuses to allow cursory searches on RS. iv. Plain Touch: Cop may remove object of readily discernable identity while patting down suspect (Dickerson) 1. But not if object is unintelligible (no PC to believe its contraband) 10. AUTOMOBILES AND OTHER MOVEABLE OBJECTS a. No Warrant Requirement (Carroll Doctrine) i. Carroll v. US (1925)(340): Cops may conduct warrantless search of automobile w/ PC that it contains evidence of criminal activity. 1. Policy: Exigency- warrant impractical where car can be moved out of jurisdiction. 2. Exigency judged at moment of search (Chambers) ii. Chambers v. Marooney (1970)(342): Reasonable to conduct warrantless search of automobile if it would have been reasonable to seize car to obtain warrant (need PC) iii. DEOP in automobile (Carney 1985 (346)) iv. Auto Exception vs. SITA (arrest power rule): 1. State prefers arrest power rule b/c automatic car search w/o need for PC of evidence. 2. 3 situations where SITA power will not apply, State prefers Auto Exception-a. Arrest not made near car b. Search of car too far removed from arrest to be deemed incident to arrest. c. Cops want to search trunk. b. Containers in Car: Expansion of Search Powers i. US v. Ross (1982)(350): Cops w/ PC for warrantless search of car can search entire car and all containers inside it ii. CA v. Acevedo (1991) (351): PC to search container in car gives right to search entire car. 1. Ross expanded, Sanders overruled (which followed Chadwick). 2. Scalia Conc: Warrant req is riddled with holes, no longer primary 4A clause. Should return to reasonableness except where common law required warrant. iii. Ross/Acevedo Applied: 1. Cop smells burnt mj, searched passenger compartment, finds nothing, searches under hood. OK (McSween 5th) 2. But See: Cop smells burnt mj, finds nothing in passenger compartment, no PC to search trunk. (Nielsen 10th) iv. Delayed Searches: US v. Johns (1985) [cops remove packages from trunk, place in DEA warehouse, search 3 days later] Cops not required to keep packages in vehicle. Delay was reasonable; However, indefinite retention impermissible, and s may make unreasonable search args.

16 c. Auto Passengers Persons and Property: i. Warrantless search of passenger property/containers OK (Houghton (1999)) 1. Passenger property treated as another container in car. Cops subjective knowledge of passenger ownership is irrelevant. Bright Line Rule. ii. However, Cops cannot search passengers person w/o PC w/r/t that person (Di Re) iii. Problem: Boundary linescops can search purse but not coat pockets. 11. EXIGENT CIRCUMSTANCES a. Intro: ECs justify: i. Warrant-less search based on PC. ii. Warrant-less arrest in home based on PC. b. Hot Pursuit: i. Warden v. Hayden (1967)(362) [cops chase into his home] Hold: Hot Pursuity justifies entering to arrest and search for concealed weapons. 1. Policy: prevent s escape, evidence destruction, threat to public safety ii. s Subjective Intent: Hot Pursuit does not apply where not aware that hes being pursued (Welsh v. Wisc (1984)(363)) 1. despite the fact c. Public Safety: Warrant excused where poses risk to public safety, injury, physical danger; based on POV of officer at time of search. (Salava 7th; Tierney 2d). d. Destruction of Evidence: i. Dorman Factors to guide determination of urgent need: 1. Gravity of violent nature of offence 2. Whether suspect reasonable believed to be armed 3. Clear showing of PC to believe suspect committed crime 4. Strong reason to believe suspect is on premises being entered 5. Likelihood of escape if not swiftly apprehended 6. Peaceful circumstances of entry. ii. MacDonald (2d 364): entry justified where suspects jumping from windows after cops announce presence after drug buy. Ongoing undercover operation irrelevant. e. Creating Exigency: i. Impermissible to deliberately create EC in order to get search/entry (Timberlake DC) ii. But see MacDonald: cops can enter despite ongoing undercover investigation. 12. ADMINISTRATIVE SEARCHES a. Home Searches: Warrant required, but need not be based on PC of individual violation. i. Camara v. Municipal Court (1967)(380)[home safety inspection] Hold: Warrant required, but may be issued upon a finding that search in compliance with a reasonable administrative scheme (stds for conducting admin search are satisfied) 1. Policy: maintenance of govt regulatory scheme replaces individualized suspicion. 2. Harlan Dis: this trivializes warrant requirement b. Businesses: Burger v. New York (1987)(382)[NYS auto chop-shop regs; NY finds 4A unconst-only diff between i. Hold: Warrantless search of premises OK for Closely Regulated Industry 1. Policy: DEOP where industry is pervasively regulated 2. Q. What is closely-regulated? Historical regulation (junk yards, pawn shops) probative but not nec (Power Plants). a. AS: could anything not be regulated overnight through legis action? b. Dis: Unless inspection is included (bootstrapping), junkyards arent regulated any other business; NY Ct- only diff be

17 ii. 3-Part Test for Reasonablness: (Even where industry is pervasively regulated: 1. Substantial Govt Interest (In Burger: facilitating auto theft) 2. Warrantless Inspections must be necessary 3. Regulatory Statute must have trad warrant limits: a. Advise owner that search pursuant to law w/ properly defined scope b. Limit discretion of officers iii. AS: Burger is troubling b/c blurs line between criminal searches and admin searches. c. Special Needs Searches i. Intro: Special Needs searches occur with RS or no suspicion at all; Limited by balance of govt interest vs. privacy intrusion. 1. Analysis: Once Special Need found, court conducts a Balance Test. 2. Intrusiveness Analysis: (1) Circumstances of Intrusion; (2) Methodology ii. School Searches: 1. TLO (1985): student handbag search w/ RS of cigarettes justified on basis of: a. Safety and Health in Learning Environment b. School Discipline. 2. Cornfield by Lewis (7th 1993): Permits limited strip search of boy believed to be crotching drugs. 3. Jenkins by Hall (11th 1997) [2nd graders strip searched for missing $2] Hold: Public school officials get Qualified Immunity in 1983 actions unless clearly established violation of constitutional law. iii. Employee Drug Testing: Suspicion-less Searches 1. Skinner v. Railway Labor (1989)(394)[RR regs have suspicion-less drug testing for all employees involved in accident] Program serves special state interests beyond law enforcement justifying departure from warrant and PC a. Suspicion-less search justified where (a) minimal privacy intrusion and (b) important govt interests that could be thwarted by PC/warrant req. i. Also, Employee DEOP for working in regulated industry. b. Marsh Dis: (1) this is major intrusion w/o PC; (2) Diff from other SNS because no individualized suspicion here. 2. Natl Treasury v. Von Raab (1989)(395)[mandatory drug testing upheld for 3 categories of customs applicantsprivate pissing w/ monitor close by] a. Kennedy Hold: Strong govt interests for front-line and gun-carrying jobs: (a) Integrity of front line officers; (b) Capacity of officers carrying firearms b. Scalia Dis: Distinguishes from Skinner where court had documentation of drug problem in RR industry. Symbolism cannot validate an unreasonable search. 3. Employees vs. Applicants: Post-Von Raab DC Cir holds same scheme for DOJ employees invalid (Employees have greater REOP than applicants (?)) a. Solution: Public Notice / 1-in-10 searches i. Eliminates surprise (less intrusion) ii. Permits applicant to walk away 4. Use Restriction on Test Results? Ct notes Von Raab had use restriction; could not give results to cops w/o consentUnclear whether this is required. a. Q: Should Admin Search evidence be available for crim prosecutions? iv. Drug/HIV Testing:

18 1. People v. Adams (1992)(413) Rejects 4A challenge to statute requiring mandatory HIV tests for s convicted of prostitution and other sex-related crimes. a. Govt Interest: prevent spread of HIV, treat carriers. 2. Fergusen v. Charleston (2001)(413)[cops/hospital policy to test pregnant mothers for cocaine use; 4th Cir find purpose=law enforcement and maternal health] Maj Hold: a. Privacy intrusion too large; Primary purpose=law enforcement b. Distinguish from Burger: not closely regulated industry; Burgers purpose was not law enforcement. c. Underlying: exploitation of poor, black mothers; cops wrote the policy 3. Hypo: Testing Docs for HIV? a. High interest; High intrusion; Failure to disclose invalidates informed consent for surgery? d. Roadblocks, Checkpoints, Suspicion-less Seizures i. Intro: Permissibility depends on asserted justification (rational basis analysis) 1. Uncovering unrelated evidence does not affect analysis. ii. Licence/Registration Stops: Delaware v. Prouse (1979): No Highway Terry Stops for Licence/Registration w/o RS. 1. Policy: check on discretion; less intrusive alternatives exist. iii. Border Policing: 1. Martinez-Fuerte (1976): Cops may stop all cars w/o individualized suspicion at permanent checkpoints removed from border. a. Border reg is broad executive power (illegal aliens) b. Checkpoint location is fixed; no officer discretion. c. Terry extended: search for evidence, not safety iv. Highway Checkpoints: 1. Mich. State Police v. Sitz (1990)(420) Fixed sobriety checkpoints for highway safety are permissible. a. Terry analysis (not Special Needs) b/c interest is regular law enforcement. b. Scotus uses Rational Basis Test to judge policy/effectiveness. 2. But See, City of Indianapolis v. Edumud (2000)(422) Drug search checkpoints (w/ dog sniff) unconstitutional where primary purpose is drug interdiction rather than highway safety. a. Policy: trying to restore a distinction between Crim searches and Reg searches. b. Nb: Dog sniff should not have pushed it over limit b/c will only find contraband for which no REOP in pubic place. (Car is public?) c. Dicta: 4A would permit law enforcement admin stop to prevent terrorism. v. Investigating Prior Crimes: Illinois v. Lidster (2004)(432)[checkpoint to find witness for hit-and-run one week prior] Hold: suspicion-less investigatory stops OK where purpose is soliciting public information. 1. Important: individuals stopped are not targets of investigation. (this was an admin stop for law enforcement) 13. CONSENT SEARCHES a. Basics of Consent: Search based on voluntary consent OK absent warrant or PC

19 i. Schneckloth v. Bustamonte (1973)(452) Consent = Voluntary under Totality of Circumstances. 1. Knowledge of right-to-refuse is relevant factor, but no bright-line requirement. 2. Policy: Voluntary/Coercion model avoids Miranda waiver analysis. ii. Burden of Proof: Govt must prove consent where no Warrant/PC (Bumper) iii. Consent Factors: (Gonzalez-Basulto 5th 1990) non-exclusive; not all factors equal 1. Voluntariness of s custodial status 2. Presence of coercive police procedures 3. Extent and level of s cooperation w/ police 4. s awareness of Rights 5. s education and intelligence 6. s belief that no evidence will be found (AS-this is worthless) iv. Robinette (1996) (458)[lawful highway stop; after ticket cop asks for search] 1. Hold: Scotus rejects requiring verbal warning of right to refuse consent. v. Cultural Excuse: Zapata (10th1994) Ct refuses to consider s upbringing which taught to obey authority (out of respect or dangerhere, mexican) 1. Policy: cultural history unverifiable, difficult to adjudicate. vi. Threats and Consent: 1. Threat to get a warrant if consent not given a. PC exists: consent OK b. NO PC: consent invalid c. No PC but cop thinks there is: consent valid where cops are reasonable d. PC exists, but cops dont think they have it: consent valid under Wren. 2. Threats against s family (arrest, harm befalling, etc) taints consent (Ivy, etc). Third-Party Consent i. US v. Matlock (1977)(461) [Co-tenant consents to search of s house] 1. Hold: 3rd Party consent valid based on joint access and control. 2. Q: Babysitters, live-in housekeeper, family members, etc.??? a. Family members: may depend on access to private area in question. ii. Apparent Authority: Illinois v. Rodriguez (1990) Search OK where cops have reasonable but mistaken belief that 3rd party has authority to consent. 1. Scalia: is assured of no unreasonable search, not no search w/o consent. 2. Marshall Dis: no search where does not voluntarily assume risk of 3rd party consent. Scope of Consent i. Florida v. Jimeno (1991)(466) Scope of Consent measured by standard of reasonable objectiveness; Cops do not have to ask for separate consent to search paper bag in car. ii. Outer Limits: 1. Consent for apt entry does not permit 7-hour search (Townes 7th) 2. Consent to search of person does not entail crotch frisk (Blake 11th) Withdrawal of Consent i. can withdraw or limit consent at any time ii. While revocation may not itself support RS/PC, manner of revocation may be probative (Carter DC). 1. Wald Dis: exercising a const right should not be taken as evidence for suspicion. Credibility Determinations i. Court usually believe cop; App Cts rarely overrule, except where: 1. Officer testimony implausible or contradictory.

b.

20 2. External evidence corroborating over cop. 14. WIRETAPPING, UNDERCOVER ACTIVITY a. Wiretapping Generally: (seizure of words) i. Olmstead v. US (1928): 4A does not cover wiretapping. (trespass analysis) 1. Brandeis Dis: Govt is the potent and omnipresent teacher. ii. Berger v. New York (1967) (475) Wiretap statute unconstitutional b/c without adequate supervision or procedures 1. Flaws incl: (a) crime specifying not required; (b) no requirement of description of conversations sought; (c) extended length of time; (d) permissive std for extensions; (e) no provision for termination; (f) statute lacked notice and return procedures. b. Undercover Agents and Surreptitious Recordings i. Basic: Conversation between govt agent/informant and does not implicate 4A (On Lee, Lopez) ii. Tape Recordings: May be uses as independent evidence, not just corroboration. 1. Must Prove Authenticity: True, complete, accurate. iii. Lewis v. US (1966)(474) [wired undercover cop enters drugdealers home w/ consent] 1. Hold: No 4a violation; cop in home lawfully, thus recording was OK. (also, this was drug transaction. 2. Dis: Consent obtained through trickery- material failure to disclose. c. Federal Wiretap Statute: 18 USC 2510-2520 i. Procedural Safeguards: 1. 2518(5) - Minimization Requirements: authorization to intercept shall be conducted in such a way as to minimize interception of non-described communications. a. But see Scott (1978)(485fn41) [Agents turn on tap, never turn it off] Hold: Although no cops had no intent to comply w/ minimization, tap OK b/c agents only intercepted phone calls covered by warrant. i. Policy: Important case; much evidences suppressed; Ct bails out govt. 2. 2518(1) Application must include: A. (b): (i) details of particular offense; (ii) description of nature and location of facilities where communication is to be intercepted; (iii) description of type of communications sought; and (iv) identity of individuals targeted (if known) b. (d): statement of period of time for which interception is required to be maintained 3. 2518(3)(c) Govt must show/allege normal investigative procedures have been tried and failed, unlikely to succeed if tried, too dangerous. 4. 2518(8)(d) within a reason able time, judge must notify about wiretap, incl: fact of order; date of entry; whether communications were intercepted. ii. Video Surveillance: Not covered, but Court borrows Wiretap Stat procedures(a) video is least intrusive measure; (b) warrant must describe area videotaped; (c)limited time period; (d) minimization requirement (Koyomejian 9th (477fn35)) iii. Intelligence Surveillance: 1. Domestic Security: US v. US Dist. Ct (1972)(480fn37) Pres has no power to conduct warrantless searches in domestic security investigations. 2. Foreign Security:

21 a. Truong Dinh Hung (4th 1980) (fn37) Even where warrant not required (FISA), search must satisfy 4A reasonableness. b. Patriot Act has relaxed requirements for FISA orders. iv. Consequences for Violation 1. Donovan (1977) (486) Court declines to exclude evidence where statute violated did not play a substantive role [ did not receive notice of tap] v. Cases: 1. Dalia (1979) Act implies authority to break into home to install device. 2. Steiger (11th 2003) Searches by private parties not solicited by govt are not regulated by 4A. III. THE EXCLUSIONARY RULE (10/19-10/26) 1. INTRO: THE EXCLUSIONARY RULE a. Intro: Ongoing Debate over whether constitutionally required. i. 4A language suggests no; However, there must be a remedy for 4A prohibitions to be meaningful. ii. Deterrence: While it may not change bad actors, may keep good actors good. iii. Preservation of Judicial Integrity: courts should not sanction illegally obtained evidence. 1. Con: allowing murderers to go free sullies integrity. b. Rule Evolution: i. Weeks v. US (1914) Exclusionary rule is only effective means of protecting 4A rights; Judicial integrity requires suppression. Fed Cts only. ii. Wolf v. Colorado (1949) 14A does not require exclusion in State courts. iii. Mapp v. Ohio (1961) 4A requires Exclusionary Rule (necessary corollary and constitutionally required) c. FRCrP 41: The Suppression Hearing i. Motions required Pre-Trial: Policy-1. Admissible evidence will shape trialmay produce plea bargain, charges dropped. 2. Avoid surprise at trial. 3. Protect Jurors and their time 4. Permit appeals of suppression decisions. ii. Franks v. Delaware (1978)(511) has limited right to attack truthfullness of statements made in a warrant. 1. No Franks hearing unless: a. Allegations accompanies by an offer of proof (what I will prove, if you let me) b. Alleged false state were material (if set aside, there will not remain sufficient content in warrant to justify PC) 2. To Prevail in Franks hearing must prove affiant (a) lied deliberately, or (b) acted with reckless disregard for truth; iii. Burden of Proof: Depend on warrantw/o warrant Govt has burden to prove PC exception. d. Standing to Request Suppression i. Simmons v. US (1968) (514) s pre-trial suppression testimony may not be used for impeachment during trial. (other witness testimony may be used, however)

22 ii. Rakas v. Illinois (1978)(516) [car passenger moves to suppress evidence found in car] must have REOP in place searched in order to move for suppression 1. Here, car passenger does not have REOP in car. iii. Other Rejected theories of standing: 1. Ownership: absent owner may not have a REOP 2. Target theory: against any that search was directed against. a. Payner (1980) [IRS breaks into hotel room to get evidence for tax evasion] Scotus reverses trial court, rejects suppression b/c had no REOP in hotel room. 3. Co-conspirator standing iv. Problem w/ Rakas: Cops my get at A by violating Bs rights. 2. FRUIT OF THE POISONOUS TREE (FOPT) a. Wong Sun (1963) (in Brown 535) Evidence not admissible where: i. (a) Gained through exploitation of prior illegality (primary illegality) ii. (b) has standing to complain about primary illegality. b. Breaking the Causal Chain: Relevant Factors i. Passage of time 1. A few hours is insufficient 2. In Wong Sun: lawful arraignment, released on recognizance, voluntary confession several days later. ii. Consent to new search of seizure: depends on (5th 2002) 1. Temporal proximity of illegal conduct and consent 2. Intervening circumstances 3. Purpose and flagrancy of initial misconduct. iii. Intervening Circumstances iv. Effect of Miranda Warnings 1. Miranda Warnings do not automatically break causal chain (Brown) a. Policy: would allow cops to arrest anyone w/o PC, then give warnings to cure confession. 2. Miranda warnings may break causal chain where primary illegality was minor a. New York v. Harris (1990)(542) [Payton violation (enter home w/o warrant) drag out, re-arrest on street w/ PC to arrest; confesses at stationhouse after Miranda warnings] i. Hold (5-4): Payton is illegal search of home; thus no exploitation since cops had PC and arrest was legal. ii. Dis: Gives incentive to violate Payton. iii. s Arg: Defense rests on illegal presence in apt. Psychological distress of in-home arrest (illegality) influenced confession. b. Beltran (1st 1990) [Like Harris but cops see cocaine in plain view] FOPT (suppress confession) depends on whether evidence seizure influenced confession. c. Rawlings (1980) [suspects improperly detained during search; confessed after evidence discovered] Hold: admissible where detention in congenial atmosphere and statements sua sponte. c. Witness Testimony After Illegal Arrest/Search i. US v. Ceccolini (1978)(542) [ got illegal search in shop, but cashier becomes witness] Hold: Scotus reluctant to suppress live witness. 1. Witness willingness to testify likely breaks causal chain.

23 ii. Crews (1980) brought to trial after illegal arrest may be identified in-court by witness; photo taken during arrest process may be used for line-up identification. 3. INDEPENDENT SOURCE AND INEVITABLE DISCOVERY a. General Principle: Cops should not put in a worse situation than if no error/misconduct b. Independent Source: Evidence may be introduced if re-discovered later through an untainted source. (Markling (7th 1993)) i. Murray v. US (1988) [cops perform confirmatory search prior to getting a warrant] 1. Hold: Search evidence not suppressed as FOPT where a. (1) Cops have PC independent of search (and search evidence), AND b. (2) Evidence that cops would have obtained a warrant without having performed the confirmatory search. 2. Dis: part (2) creates incentive of self-serving testimony. Dis would demand clear and convincing evidence of intent to search, independent of misbehaving cops. ii. Mixed Warrant Applications: some lower courts have held search warrant procured in part on basis of illegally obtained information will still support a search if untainted information, considered alone, is sufficient to establish PC (Markling 7th) c. Inevitable Discovery: i. Nix v. Williams (1984)(550)[child murdered, cop obtains 6A illegal confession during transport w/ Christian burial speech; leads cops to body] 1. Hold: Evidence not FOPT if govt proves that it would have obtained the evidence anyway. a. Cops good faith/bad faith is irrelevant. ii. Depends on what cops actually would have (not could have) done. 1. Allen (4th 1998): [cop args could have called k-9 for dog sniff had she not illegally searched it] Hold: FOPT where dog handler testifies dog never used to sniff luggage in bus passenger compartment. iii. Will likely apply to 4A, 5A and 6A violations. 4. USE OF ILLEGALLY OBTAINED EVIDENCE OUTSIDE TRIAL a. Non-Trial Proceedings: i. Grand Jury: US v. Calandra (1974)(556) 1. Hold: illegally seized evidence not excluded from Grand Jury proceedings. 2. Policy: Sufficient deterrence flows from exclusion at trial. a. Balance: costs of exclusion vs. marginal deterrence. ii. Civil Tax Proceedings: No exclusion (Janis 1976) iii. Civil Deportation: No exclusion (Lopez-Mendoza 1984) iv. Parole Revocation Hearing: Scott (5-4 1998): Exclusionary rule doest apply to parole revocation hearing. 1. Problem: parole violation hearing will be only proceeding ever brought on the new alleged crime. b. Impeachment Purposes i. US v. Havens (1980)(563) [On cross of , elicits statements contrary to suppressed evidence] Maj (5-4): Suppressed evidence may be used to impeach s testimony on direct or cross. 1. Policy: no right to perjury; false testimony should be contradicted. 2. Dis: Prosecutor can set a trap for , then get to use suppressed evidence/testimony. Cuts off s right to testify. ii. James v. Illinois (1990)(565) Suppressed testimony may not be used to impeach witness.

24 1. Dis (Kenn): greater risk of false testimony and jury will trust 3rd party. Suppressed evidence should be allowed to impeach, but only where direct contradiction. c. Good Faith i. US v. Leon (1984)(567) Hold: Where warrant obtained in good faith (ie. affiant did not mislead court) evidence admissible even where warrant later invalidated. 1. Whites Policy: a. Use of Fruits works no new 4A Wrong. i. Exclusion for deterrence, not a personal constitutional right of aggrieved party. b. ER appropriateness depends on cba of deterrence vs. loss of evidence. c. Deterrent effect on magistrates (who issue bad warrants) does not justify suppression. 2. Brennan Dis: a. Deterrence works on all govt; not just police. b. 4A is the restraint on prosecution, not exclusionary rule. c. CBA test is impossible for judiciary to perform honestly. 3. Stevens Dis: cant be reasonable reliance on an unreasonable warrant. 4. Problem: 4A doctrine will freeze where App Ct ducks question of warrant acceptability and finds search sustained based on Good Faith. a. Fails to provide guidance (Calebresi in Cancelmo). 5. NB: permits reliance on a warrant that would fail Gates totality (particularly where review of Gates is deferential) ii. Applying Leon: Warrantless Searches 1. Statutes: Krull v. Illinois (1987)(588) [cops relies in good faith on unconstitutional statute for warrantless search] a. Hold: Good Faith exception allows reliance on legislative acts except where provisions are such that officer should know they are unconstitutional. i. Exclusion will not deter legislature. b. Dis (OC): legislature is political, should not allow reliance. 2. Clerical Error: Evidence obtained during a search pursuant to arrest is admissible where arrest warrant had beenn quashed but not purged from court clerks database. (Adams 1995) a. Conc: may be instances where computer records are so faulty that police cannot rely in good faith. 5. ALTERNATIVES TO EXCLUSION a. Amars Tort Remedy i. (1) Govt liability for illegal police behavior ii. (2) Damage multipliers iii. (3) small damage claims entitled to atty fees iv. (4) Relaxed procedural limitations for 4A injunctive relief v. (5) Admin channels for efficient claims processing. vi. Problem: this allows state to budget for 4A violations as cost of doing business. b. AS: not clear that there are any effective alternativesNeed mixed system. IV. SELF-INCRIMINATION AND CONFESSIONS (10/26-11/9) 1. POLICIES

25 a. Protecting Innocent: protect innocent from convicting self through bad testimony. i. Con: Scotus has disclaimed this rationale; No proof of protection, juries unlikely to give benefit of doubt re: silence where other evidence against her. b. Cruel Trilemma: (1) Self-accusation, (2) Perjury, (3) Contempt i. Con: This problem exists for any testifying witness; only supports privilege at trial. c. Deter Perjury: prefer silence to false testimony i. Con: will lie anyway if thinks it will be successful. d. Unreliability of Coerced Statements i. Con: privilege unnecessary where there is corroborating evidence e. Preference for Accusatorial System i. Con: This is merely a conclusory restatement of the privilege. f. Deter Improper Police Procedure i. Con: Torture is unacceptable regardless of privilege, and protected by Due Process. g. Fair State-Individual Balance: forcing good cause for govt intrusion. i. Con: 4A already protects against disturbance; privilege may not be best instrument to determine this balance. h. Preservation of Official Morality i. Con: only applies to trial context. i. Privacy i. Con: Inconsistent with other areas where private testimony required. j. First Amendment: protection from govt snooping and oppression of beliefs i. Con: should only apply to speech, religion, and association. 2. WHAT IS COMPULSION a. Compelled Testimony i. Contempt Power: may not be held in contempt for refusal to testify. ii. Cancelled Contracts: 1. Lefkowitz v. Turley (1973)(614) Govt may not threaten to cancel govt contacts for refusal to waive 5A privilege and testify a. Nb: not a criminal proceeding may assert 5A rights in any kind of proceeding, if argued that testimony may be used in criminal proceeding. iii. Noting Failure to Testify: Griffin v. California (1965)(626) Neither judge nor prosecutor may make reference to s invocation of 5A by not testifying. 1. Policy: Making reference is tantamount to compulsion 2. Exceptions: a. may point out that had Opportunity to testify (Robinson) b. In 2nd trial (after conviction reversal), may refer to s 5A invocation during 1st trial where relevant (Raffel) iv. Adverse Inferences at Sentencing: 1. Mitchell v. US (1999)(627) Hold: Ct may not use silence during trial to enhance sentence. a. Scalia Dis: amt of force in Mitchell and Griffin is not compulsion; threat of adverse inference is natural, not compulsion. 2. However: may be able to use as evidence of no remorse. v. Benefit vs. Penalty: 1. not compelled where benefit is conditioned on 5A waiver (Cruz 2d sentence reduction from mandatory minimum for testimony) 2. Ohio Parole Authy v. Woodward (1998) Parole board hearing offering opportunity to voluntarily testify for clemency not coercion.

26 3. McKune v. Lile (2002) No compulsion where convict must admit guilt for all prior offenses (whether or not she has been prosecuted for them) in order to get into treatment program. b. Immunity i. Defn: Immunized Testimony is compelled; Refusal to testify risks contempt. Usually use/derivative use immunity. ii. Direct and Derivative Use: Govt may not use testimony or leads/evidence derived therefrom. iii. Transactional: protected against prosecution on any transactions disclosed by testimony. 1. Kastigar (1972) 5A does not require transactional immunity for compelled testimony. iv. Perjury: Immunized witness is subject to prosecution for perjury v. Federal Immunity Statute: 18 USC 6002 (1972) 1. Upheld in Kastigar. 3. TO WHOM DOES THE PRIVILEGE BELONG; WHAT IS PROTECTED; DOCUMENTS a. Who is Protected i. Fisher v. US (1976)(634) Where docs produced by s accountant, s 5A privilege does not excuse accountant from complying w/ subpoena. not compelled. ii. Corporations and Other Collective Entities: No 5A protection (Hale v. Hinkel) 1. Bellis (1974)(634) Agents of a legal entity must testifying against entity. a. Taft-Hartley Act: applies Collective Entity Rule to Labor Unions 2. Braswell (1988) Corp Officers must divulge docs even where these docs would incriminate the officer in question. a. Act of Production is a representative act as agent of corp b. Though, jury may not be told that Corp Officer provided the docs (important for knowledge of docs/illegality) 3. Doe Exception: Owner of Sole Proprietorship gets 5A protection (entity=individual) b. What is Protected: Compelled Testimonial Self-Incriminating (CTSI) i. Schmerber v. California (1966)(637) Toxicology report based on blood sample taken against s will is admissible. 1. Hold: 5A only protects against Compelled, Testimonial, Self-Incrimination 2. Blood Test not Testimonial (communication) a. Policy: Maj worried about distinguishing fingerprinting/line-ups. 3. Other Non-Testimonial Evidence: a. Line-up Participation (Wade) b. Handwriting (Gilbert) c. Voiceprints (Dionisio) ii. PA v. Muniz (1990)(640)[DUI stop, has slurred speech] 1. Hold: (1) Fact of slurred speech is admissible as physical evidence. Divorced from content; (2) Inability to remember b-day inadmissible. 2. Policy: Ct refuses to subject to cruel trilemma 3. AS: risk of wrong guess is not same as prosecution for perjury iii. Compelled Consent for Records/Tests: 1. Doe v. US (1988) No testimonial aspect to consent signature. a. Stevens Dis: Testimonial b/c govt forced him to create a new doc that could be used against him.

27 2. Neville (1983) State may compel to take blood test; May use refusal to test against . c. Documents: i. Business Fisher v. US (1976)(634) [IRS subpoenas tax records] 1. Hold: No compulsion where docs were not compelled at time of creation (ie. docs already in existence) a. Policy: not every invasion of privacy is covered by 5A ii. Act of Production may be protected where: (Fisher IV) 1. production admits existence of docs 2. production admits possession of docs 3. production authenticates docs (docs contain information that subpoena alleges) a. Exception: where docs produced by s.o. other than . iii. Foregone Conclusion Doctrine: Production required existence and possession of docs is a foregone conclusion (e.g. tax recordsand verification not a problem b/c acct can verify). 1. Hubbell (2000): [Court overturns indictment where govt makes derivative use of immunized testimony] Hold: Foregone Conclusion Doctrine not available where govt did not prove independent knowledge of existence or whereabouts of docs. iv. Private Papers: 5A provides no protection for contents of private papers of any kind (OC conc in Doemost cts follow, others draw business/personal distinction). d. Required Records Doctrine i. Defn: Compels production of records. Govt may1. Require records to be kept 2. Punish failure to keep records 3. Punish for false records 4. Punish criminal activity admitted in records ii. Shapiro v. US (1948)(658): RR Rule OK where sufficient relation between activity sought to be regulated and the public concern authorizing regulation. iii. Limits of RR Doctrine: 1. Marchetti (1968)[ convicted of failing to keep records of illegal gambling activities] Distinguishes Shapiro; Records not required wherea. Records not customarily kept b. No public aspects of the information demanded c. Regs are directed at selective group inherently suspect of criminal activities. (Shapiro was non-criminal activities) 2. Producing Identification/Name: California v. Byers (1971) (660) [CA stat required auto accident drivers to stop and leave id/registration; CA Sup Ct required use immunity required] a. Burger Hold: (1) Stat OK where scheme is regulatory, not criminal; immunity not required; (2) Giving name is never testimonial. b. Harlan Conc: Name giving may, at times, be testimonial. c. Hibbell (sm55) i. Giving Name may be testimonial; ii. But Not Incriminating w/o real and appreciable fear that name would be used to convict. 3. Production of a Person: Bouknight (1990)(657/61)[child welfare fears killed child; Orders to produce for inspection]

28 a. Hold: RR rule overrule 5a claim. holding child in a representative (not parental) capacity (corporate custodian analogy). 4. PROCEDURAL ASPECTS OF SELF-INCRIMINATION a. General: Difficult for prosecutor to overcome asserted 5A claim i. Invocation always valid at trial b. Test for Non-Trial Proceeding: Risk of Incrimination: Whether the information requested of a witness might possibly tend to incriminate the witness in the future i. Perfectly clear from consideration of all circumstances, that the answers cannot possibly have a tendency to incriminate. (Hoffman 1951) 1. Determined without compelling witness to divulge testimony. ii. Mason (1917): no 5A protection where danger asserted is of imaginary and insubstantial character. iii. Hibbell: No 5A protection for name where refusal not based on any articulated real and appreciable fear that name would (1) be used to incriminate, or (2) furnish a link in the chain of evidence needed to prosecute. 5. CONFESSIONS AND DUE PROCESS a. Intro: PolicyShould confessions be outlawed? i. J. Goldberg (Escobedo): system which depends on confessions are less reliable and more subject to abuse; system will suffer morally. ii. Scalia (Minna): It is wrong and subtly corrosive of our system to regard an honest confession as a mistake. b. Due Process Basis: What is Involuntary? i. Involuntariness: Test is Case-by-Case Totality of Circumstances (Fikes) 1. Analysis Factors: a. s personal characteristics (age, education, mental capacity) b. Circumstances of mistreatment and physical deprivation (brutality, denial of food, sleep deprivation, provision of amenities) c. Psychological pressure (sustained interrogation, denial of friends, incommunicado confinement, inducements/rewards, use of trained psych) d. aware of right to silence/counsel 2. Modern Day Applications: a. Pre-charge (6A only applies after formal charges) b. Outside Custodial Interrogation, Miranda waiver or exceptions. 3. Behavior not ruled involuntary: a. Mentally deficient interrogated for 7 hours (Nix 8th 1988) b. wounded, cops interrogate at gunpoint (McCall 6th 1988) c. Mentally deficient, deprived or food/sleep 25 hrs (Moore 11th 1988) d. Confession handcuffed and in heroin withdrawal (Kelley 9th 1992) ii. Deception and False Promises 1. Green v. Scully (2d 1988) Interrogation OK where scare tactics, use of false promises re: psychological treatment. 2. False Promises usually only involuntary where specific promise to produce specific benefit not kept. 3. False Documentary Evidence: Confession involuntary where cops used fabricated DNA report to extract confession (Caward FlaApp 1989) iii. Threats of Physical Violence: Credible threats of violence sufficient to make coercion. (Fulamonte 1991- confesses to prison cellmate in exchange for protection)

29 iv. Focus on State Coercion: Colorado v. Connolly (1986) [ say God told him to confess to murder command hallucination] Hold: Confession voluntary unless State acts coercively. Ends Free will test. 1. Erving (10th 1998) No suppression where s mother forces to confess. 2. Upshot: Irrelevant that on drugs, drunk, mentally impaired or emotionally vulnerable. 6. MASSIAH AND ESCOBEDO a. Massiah v. US (1964)(775) [ arrested, arraigned, released for drugs on merchant ship; Cops send co-conspirator to elicit and tape confession] i. Hold: 6A right to counsel violated where cops seek confession after has been formally charged. ii. Dis: This confession was voluntarily given in non-coercive setting. b. Escobedo v. Illinois (1964)(777) [ arrested but not yet indicted; Requests for lawyer denied, retained atty not permitted access] i. Hold: Ct find 6A right to counsel violation where is focus of investigation that has reached critical stage. ii. Dis: Huge extends Massiah and 6A right to counsel, which only protects prosecutions not investigations. c. Post-Escobedo: i. Moran v. Burbine (1986) OC: Overrules Escobedo; says it was 5A case. 1. Hold: 6A protection does not begin until initiation of criminal proceedings. 7. MIRANDA AND ITS IMPACT a. Intro: i. Bram (1897) Use of forced confessions prohibited by 5A self-incrimination; use of promises is coercion 1. Never explicitly followed, but Miranda may have resurrected it. b. Miranda v. Arizona (1966)(690). i. Absent warnings, an irrebutable presumption of coercion. 1. Right to silence 2. All statements can be used in prosecution 3. Right to attorney representation 4. Right to provision of atty for indigent clients. ii. Burden shift for waiver: If interrogation continues w/o lawyer, cops have heavy burden to show Voluntary, Knowing, Intelligent (VKI) waiver. iii. 5A Limited Right to Counsel: Counsel presence not required; must be informed of right, and must request. Once requested, no interrogation w/o counsel. iv. Policy: 1. 5A protects outside of criminal proceedings, protects in all settings where freedom of action is curtailed 2. Inherent compulsion in custodial setting, need safeguards to protect free choice. 3. Prophylactic rule to combat impossibility of judicial review of interrogation v. Dissents: 1. Harlan: No basis in 5A law-5A does not forbid all pressure; right to counsel is 6A (for crim proceedings)-lawyers will only be an obstacle to truthfinding. 2. White: Maj just hates confessions; confessions have high reliable and important for prosecution. c. Mirandas Impact i. Dickerson v. US (2000)(710) [Response to 18USC3501 (1968), attempting to replace Miranda with totality of circumstances test]

30 1. Rehn Hold: Miranda was a constitutional rule, and congress cannot supercede Scotus interpretation of constitution. (Miranda has applied to state cases) a. Exceptions are just exceptionsnot proof that Miranda is just prophylactic. (Nb: does not overrule exceptions). b. Any alternatives to Miranda must be at least as protective. 2. Scalia Dis: Miranda is, always has been, bad law. a. Not constitutional rule. Not required by 5A, unsound merger w/ 6A. b. Maj hates all confessions. ii. Chavez v. Martinez (2003) Miranda is a trial rule only; Not violated if never charged with a crime, or confession not adimitted at trial. d. Exceptions to Miranda i. Impeachment Use 1. Harris v. US (1971)(718) Miranda defective statements can be used to impeach s testimony at trial. a. Miranda is prophylactic, not Constitutional (overruled in Dickerson) b. Policy: sufficient deterrence flows from suppression for case-in-chief. c. Bruton: Jury instructions should be used to limit effect of confession. 2. Mincey v. Arizona (1978) Involuntary (coerced) confession cannot be used for impeachment. Based in Due Process. 3. Post-Warning Silence: a. Cannot be used as prior inconsistency for impeachment (Doyle 1976) b. May not be used to rebut insanity defense (Wainwright 1986) 4. Pre-Arrest Silence: Use of pre-arrest silence for impeachment does not violate 14A (Jenkins 1980- waits 2 wks to turn himself in, args self-defense). 5. Post-Arrest, Pre-Miranda Silence: Permissible (Fletcher) ii. FOPT and Miranda Violations: Fruits of Miranda-violations are admissible (even post-Dickerson) 1. Witnesses: Michigan v. Tucker (1974)(733) [Miranda-defective confession leads cops to witness] Hold: Witness testimony admissible a. Miranda rule is Prophylactic, not Constitutional b. No reason to believe witness testimony unreliable c. Balance Test: little deterrence value in suppressing fruits 2. 2nd Confession: a. Oregon v. Elstad (1985)(723) [pre-Miranda confession leads cops to post-Miranda confession] Hold: FTP exclusion does not apply to postMiranda confession. i. Miranda sweeps more broadly than the 5A b. Mo v. Seibert (2004)(sm64) [police protocol calls for pre-Miranda interrogation] 5-4 Maj: Intentional violation may invalidate second confession. i. Distinguishing Elstad (does not overrule) 1. Not FOPT casethis is issue of VKI Waiver 2. Deliberate failure to warn (bad faith) 3. Explicit use of previous case 3. Evidence: US v. Patane (2004)(sm57) [unwarned statements produce gun] a. Plurality (Thomas+2): Evidence fruits are admissible. i. Fruits are not themselves Testimonial, thus not suppressible under CTSI

31 b. OC/Kenn Conc: Miranda violation is admission of testimony at trial, not mere failure to warn. c. Souter Dis: Creates incentive to violate Miranda. 5A extends protection to use and derivative use (Kastigar, Hubbell) iii. Emergency/Public Safety 1. New York v. Quarles (1984)(726) [cop tackles in grocery store, asks where he stashed the gun] a. Hold: Public safety (need to secure gun in public place) justifies Miranda failure. Confession obtained is admissible. 2. Mobley (4th 1994) Quarles does not apply where in home, and protective sweep finds not immediate danger. 3. Carillo (9th 1994) Public safety permitted cop arresting drug suspect pre-SITA whether he had any needles; s statement admissible. 8. OPEN QUESTIONS AFTER MIRANDA a. When Is Suspect in Custody? i. Custody Tests: 1. Yarborough (2004)(sm580) 2-Part Test: a. (1) Totality of Circumstances surrounding interrogation b. (2) Reasonable person feels free to terminate questions and leave. 2. Brown (8th 1993) Six Factors for determining custody: a. (1) suspect informed that questioning is voluntary; (2) freedom of movement restrained; (3)suspect initiates contact or voluntarily acquiesced to questioning; (4) use of strong-arm tactics or deceit ***; (5) atmosphere police dominated; (6) suspect placed under arrest following questions. 3. Test is Objective: Cops subjective view of whether interrogation is occurring is irrelevant to determination of Custody (Stansbury 1994) ii. Arrest: Arrest is Custody (Orozco 1969) iii. Prisoners: Suspect in custody for Miranda purposes when prison officials conduct would cause a reasonable person to believe freedom of movement is further diminished (Mathis 1986; Garcia 11th 1994) iv. Interrogation at Police Station: 1. Mathiason (1977) No custody where comes to station unaccompanied of free will, told not under arrest, left station w/o hindrance after confession. 2. Beheler (1983) Mathiason extended where goes to station with cops. v. Probation Officer Mtngs: No Custody where Probation officer questions in office about crimes (Murphy 1984) vi. Terry Stops: Not custodial (Berkemer 1984) b. What Constitutes Interrogation? i. RI v. Innes (1980)(735) [cops talk to each other in paddywaggon re: danger of missing gun near school] No interrogation here; Interrogation Defn: 1. Stewart Maj: Interrogation is not only direct questioning, but any words or actions cops should know are reasonably likely to elicit an incriminating response. (Incriminating=any inculpatory or exculpatory statements that prosecutor may use at trial) a. Interrogation must reflect a level of compulsion beyond the fact of custody. 2. Marsh Dis: Whenever police conduct is intended or likely to produce a response.

32 3. Stevens Dis: statement normally understood by average listener as calling for a response. 4. AS: this awful definition is difficult to apply, prob not applied here. No good rule established. ii. Interrogation Found: 1. Confronting with incriminating evidence: Edwards (1981)[cops play confession tape of co-conspirator]; Ferro (NY 1984) [cops drop stolen fur coats in front of jail cell]. iii. No Interrogation: 1. Threats to Others: Calisto (3rd 1988) [finding drugs in bedroom with mens and womens clothes, cops suggest arrest s daughter] Hold: Cops might expect a response, but not an inculpatory response. a. AS: this is bullshit. 2. Statements Made to Others: a. Conversation w/ wife in presence of cop w/ tape recorder not interrogation (Mauro 1987). b. Statements to undercover in jail cell not interrogation (Perkins 1990) iv. Booking Exception 1. Carmona (2d 1989) Asking name is never compulsion. a. AS: AppCt only; asking name may still be compulsion under Innes. 2. Muniz (1990) Qs re: name, address, height, weight not compulsion. 3. But See: Qs re: (1) nature of crime or (2) w/ clear investigative purpose do not fall within booking exception (Webb 5th; Hinkley DC) v. Hypo: Pre-trial release requirements (designed to determine how to set bail); which are interrogation? 9. WAIVER OF MIRANDA RIGHTS a. Intro: 2 Frames i. Warnings and Waiver (W-W): (1) were warnings given; (2) did waive privilege ii. Warnings, Invocation, Initiation, Waiver (W-I-I-W) b. W-W: Voluntary, Knowing and Intelligent i. Test: Totality of Circumstances ii. Voluntary: Moran v. Burbine (1986)(748) [ denied lawyer, lawyer denied access] 1. Product of free and deliberate choice rather than intimidation, coercion or deception. 2. Full awareness of rights abandoned and consequences of abandonment iii. Knowing: 1. Colorado v. Spring (1987)(753) Waiver OK where not be told of all possible subjects of questioning. 2. Elstad (1985)(754) Waiver OK where unaware that pre-Miranda confession could not be used against him 3. Moran v. Burbine (1986) Waiver OK where not told that sister had retained lawyer who had been denied access. 4. Missouri v. Seibert (2004)(sm64) [cops deliberately interrogate w/o Miranda, warn, then get 2nd confession] a. Hold: Need Truly Effective warnings -where 2nd confession is close in time and similar in content, intentional policy deprives of knowledge required for Waiver. i. Need lapse in time, location, interrogating officer, question focus. (Here, only one confessionElstad distinguished)

33 ii. Refuses to hold that 2nd confession automatically valid where cops advise of inadmissibility of 1st confession. b. Breyer Conc: Courts should exclude fruits unless failure to warn was good faith. (overrule Elstad) c. Kenn Conc: 2nd Confession bad where cop explicitly leverages prewarning statements. d. Dis: Focus should be on fruits, not psychology. Should follow Elstad to hold no violation. iv. Intelligent: 1. Most case law: whether cops believe the suspect understood his rights (focus on police misconduct) 2. Rice (7th 1998) Posner: 5A doesnt protect suspect from himself voluntary acts of impairment (alcohol, drugs, etc) do not make unintelligent. a. But See Zant (11th 1989) persons deranged/mentally defective cannot intelligently waive rights 3. Alt perspective: What is s mental understanding of the information given to him (academic perspective, not case law)? c. W-I-I-W: Invocation and Initiation i. Michigan v. Mosely (1975)(759) [confession admitted where new warnings given two hours later, new detective questioned, new crime unrelated to original questions] 1. Hold: Invocation of Silence must be scrupulously honored. However, resumed interrogation attempts are permissible. a. Factors: Cooling off period, new cop, fresh set of warnings, new topic ii. What Constitutes Invocation: 1. Davis v. US (1994) [ says maybe I should talk to a lawyer. Cops ask clarifying questions, says no lawyer, new warning given] Hold: must make unequivocal invocation of right to counselAmbiguous invocation does not require cops to cease interrogation. a. Cops do not have to clarify unclear invocation. b. Lower courts have extended to right to remain silent. 2. Smith v. Illinois (1984) Hold: Cops may not use subsequent ambiguous comments to cast doubt on clear initial invocation. a. Policy: deter abusive use of clarifying questions. 3. Kelly (8th 1983) Initial invocation of right to counsel invalid where not yet in custody; no barrier to further interrogation and waiver. iii. Invoking Right to Counsel: 1. Edwards v. Arizona (1981)(762) Where invokes right to counsel, cops may not initiate further interrogation w/o atty. a. Does not apply where cops are not interrogating (Innes) 2. Arizona v. Roberson (1988) Invocation of right to counsel is not offensespecific 3. Duration of Invocation: West (NY 1993) 5A right to counsel violation where arrested, invokes, freed, then cops find new witness and re-approach three years later. iv. Defining Initiation: Oregon v. Bradshaw (1983)(763)[ invokes right to counsel, then asks whats going to happen to me now during transport to jail] 1. Maj (5-4): 2-Step Initiation/Waiver test a. (1) initiates contact i. Here, maj finds initiation

34 b. (2) waives Miranda rights under totality of circumstances. i. Here, VKI waiver of fresh warnings. 10. CONFESSIONS AND THE SIXTH AMENDMENT a. Attachment of 6A Right to Counsel i. Brewer v. Williams (1977)(778)[Cops give Christian burial speech during transport, despite promises that they would not question him] 1. Hold: 6A Right (full blown right) attaches once adversarial judicial process begins. a. Implies can waive 6A right to counsel, even w/o consulting counsel. ii. Gouviea (1984) Formal Charges required; pre-indictment administrative detention of prisoners does not trigger. 1. But See NYS Law: Arrest warrant, although ex parte not adversarial, triggers 6A right. b. Deliberate Elicitation i. Intro: appears to be stricter std than interrogation under 5A. ii. Fellers v. US (2004)(787) [ arrested in home after indictment; Inculpatory statements made before waiver signed inadmissible] 1. Hold: Once 6A attaches, govt may not deliberately elicit inculpatory statements w/o atty or valid waiver (citing Brewer) 2. Remanded to determine whether Elstad applies to 6A context. iii. Deliberate Elicitation and Undercover Informants 1. US v. Henry (1980)(789) [govt puts paid informant into jail cell, instructs not to question about crime] Holda. 6A violation where govt created a situation likely to induce to make incriminating statements w/o counsel. b. VKI waiver does not apply w/r/t communications with undercover informant acting for govt. c. Rehn Dis: Violation/exclusion should be based on coercive interference with right to counsel. Move away from Massiah (where in own car, speaking freely). 2. Kuhlman v. Wilson (1986)(791) Distinguishes Henry where in close proximity to informant, but offers confession sua sponte. a. 6A violation requires police/informant take some action beyond mere listening and reporting. (informant only said that doesnt sound to good) 3. Is Informant a State Agent: entrepreneurial jailhouse infomants a. No govt action where cellmate deliberately elicits, then talks to cops b. Informants on retainer (Circuit split) iv. Investigating Other Crimes: 1. Maine v. Moulton (1985)(793)[cops get co- to elicit information about witness tampering (investigation of new crimes)] a. Hold: Deliberate elicitation found wherever cops should know that investigation tactic would produce incriminating information. i. Incriminating statements re: crime 1 inadmissible in trial 1. ii. Cops could use info on crime 2 in a separate trial. b. Policy: elicitation intent difficult to adjudicate. Concern w/ abuse. 2. Mealer (2d 1984) inculpatory statements re: crime 2 inadmissible at trial 1 as other crimes evidence. c. Waiver of 6A Right to Counsel

35 i. Intro: Like Miranda, waiver must be VKI. 1. Brewer: Govt must show more than received warnings and elected to speak. a. Signing waiver, high level of cooperation, lengthy confession ii. Knowing and Intelligent: 1. Patterson v. Illinois (1988)(795) Miranda warnings are sufficient to satisfy 6A knowledge requirement. Additional 6a warning not required. a. Dis: wants additional warning of counsel right post-indictment 2. Exception: If 6A has attached and not told atty trying to contact him, waiver invalid (Moran facts). a. Post-6A has the right to know atty has been obtained. iii. Invocation: (6A attaches automatically, does not require invocation) 1. Intro: Justices are not clear about what invocation means. May mean attachment. a. Where right is actively invoked, waiver is harder to get. b. Problem: Who can invoke? or s atty? 2. Michigan v. Jackson (1986)(796) After 6A invocation, Cops may not initiate further conversations w/o atty (Edwards extended to 6A). a. Problem: 6A does not require invocation, but now Edwards initiation protection will not apply unless formally invokes 6A right i. See Wilcher (5th 1992) Cops may initiate qing w/ who doesnt invoke 6A at arraignment, even though atty had been appointed. 3. McNeil v. Wisc (1991)(797) Invocation of 6A right is offense-specific. a. Unlike Roberson in 5A context. 4. Offense-Specific Defn: Texas v. Cobb (2001)(799) whether the offense hes questioned for is the same for that which he was indicted (citing Blockburger) d. FOPT and 6A Violations i. True Violation: (govt questions without waiver) 1. Direct Use: Harvey implies inadmissible 2. Impeachment: Harvey implies inadmissible 3. Indirect Fruits: Harvey implies inadmissible ii. Massiah Violation: (deliberate elicitation by undercover agent/informant) Scotus has not addressedAnalysis: (1) is it constitutional violation? (2) how much deterrence? 1. Direct Use: a. Burger Dis (Moulton): No exclusion of reliable confession b. Schulhofer: Exclusion b/c (unlike 4A) 6A violation not complete until confession admitted at trial. 2. Impeachment: Lower cts hold inadmissible for impeachment (Abdi 2d 1998) 3. Indirect Fruits: Lower cts hold inadmissible (Kimball 9th 1989) iii. Jackson Violation: ( invokes, cops initiate and get waiver) 1. Direct: ??? 2. Impeachment: Michigan v. Harvey (1990) Holds admissible for impeachment (Harris analogy) a. Policy: Jackson is Prophylactic, not constitutional 3. Indirect Fruits: ??? but probably admissible following Harvey, Harris iv. Brewer Violation: (voluntary statement in absence of VKI waiver of 6A right) 1. Direct: Not admissible (Brewer) 2. Impeachment: Harvey explicitly leaves open question. VI. THE GRAND JURY

36 1. POWERS OF INVESTIGATION a. Broad Scope of Inquiry: Dionisio (1973) [witness cattle call to provide voice recordings to match govt evidence] i. Hold: Probable Cause not required to call witness before GJ. 1. Number of witnesses called not unreasonable ii. Policy: do not want to limit GJ subpoena power, or burden ct with vetting subpoenas iii. Marshal Dis: stigma attached to GJ subpoena; protect with reasonableness test. b. Privileges i. Journalists: 1. Branzberg v. Hayes (1972) Powel Conc: Some 1A protections might be afforded news reporters. 2. Judith Miller Case: DC Cir rules a. No 1A constitutional privilege of protection for journalists b. Leaves open question of common law privilege. 3. Shield Laws: States may write shield laws for journalists a. Issue: Material for prosecutor investigation vs. defense. ii. Secret Service Agents: DC Cir rules no privilege w/r/t prez ongoings. c. Std for Quashing Subpoena i. Std: No reasonable possibility that the category of materials govt seeks will produce information relevant to general subject of investigation. (Enterprises 1974) 1. Close to impossible to meet. 2. EVIDENCE BEFORE THE GRAND JURY a. Rules of Evidence: Costello v. US (1956) [mobster dude prosecuted for tax evasiongovt uses hearsay only to prove net worth] Hold: GJ not bound to use trial-admissible evidence; hearsay OK. i. But See NY State law requires GJ indictment based on admissible evidence. b. Exculpatory Evidence i. US v. Williams (1992) Prosecutor need not present even substantial exculpatory evidence to GJ. 1. Policy: Limited fed ct supervisory power over GJ; GJ role is investigatory, not adjudicatory; GJ doesnt have to consider it, so doesnt have to present it. ii. AS: still, prosecutors have a duty not to seek an unjust indictment. 3. SECRECY AND THE GRAND JURY a. Secrecy Policy: i. Protect reputation of witnesses; prevent target flight or witness tampering; encourages witnesses to testify truthfully. b. FRCrP 6(e) i. (1): Proceedings must be recorded 1. Nb: not all states require. 2. Powerfulcan establish prior inconsistent testimony of witnesses. ii. 2(B): Who must not disclose a GJ matter 1. grand juror; interpreter; court reporter; recording device operator; transcriber; attorney for govt; iii. (3): Exceptions (898-99) c. Exceptions: i. Witnesses: FRCrP does not prohibit disclosure of own testimony 1. Butterworth v. Smith (1990)(902) Fla Stat prohibiting GJ witness from disclosing own testimony after GJ term ended violates 1A.

37 ii. (6)(e)(3)(D): Patriot Act permits govt disclosure of GJ testimony re: foreign intelligence matters to fed law enforcement. 1. Includes reporting requirement 2. Recipient of information bound by 6(e) secrecy. d. National Security Letters: Doe v. Gonzales (DConn 2005) rules NSL prohibition on disclosure 1A violation. e. Jenks Act: entitled to prior statements at close of witnesses direct testimont at trial (3500 material) 4. PROSECUTORIAL MISCONDUCT a. US v. McKenzie (5th 1982)(904fn25) indictment quashed only where misconduct amounts to overbearing the will of the grand jury. b. Harmless Error Rule (FRCP 52): Any error, defect, irregularity that does not affect substantial rights must be disregarded. i. Problem: After trial conviction, misconduct is arguably harmless error. ii. US v. Mechanik (1986) Dismissal of Indictment is appropriate if established that violation substantially influenced the grand jurys decision to indict, or if there is grave doubt as to whether it had such effect. iii. Bank of Nova Scotia (1988) Fed Ct may not use supervisory power to dismiss an indictment where error was harmless. 5. ISSUES OF STRUCTURAL ERROR a. Racial Discrimination: i. Hobby (1984) Discrimination in GJ selection does not require conviction reversal. ii. Campbell v. Louisiana (1998) Distinguished Hobby where GJ foreman hand-selected by judge from outside venire rather than by lottery. 1. Discrimination under these circumstances would be reversible. b. Jury Charge (at Trial): i. Cage v. Louisiana: harmless error test is never applicable to erroneous jury charge this is structural error. (in essence, has been deprived of trial by jury) 6. REGULATING ABUSES a. Std: when it becomes apparent that GJ is not acting in the course of a good faith investigation, but is rather attempting to harass or abuse citizens, courts will take action. b. Ealy v. Littlejohn (5th 1978) [murder of civil rights worker, GJ badly prejudiced, subpoenas NAACP membership list, subpoena quashed] i. Hold: GJ used to aid intimidation w/r/t murder investigation. c. Other Abuses: i. Discovery Device for Civil Litigation triggers court intervention. ii. Post-indictment Discovery on Case in-chief (attempt to circumvent 6A right to counsel) VII. THE RIGHT TO EFFECTIVE ASSISTANCE OF COUNSEL 1. INEFFECTIVENESS AND PREJUDICE a. Strickland v. Washington (1984)(1301) 2-Part Test: i. 2 Part Test: 1. Performance Prong: must show deficient counseloutside the wide range of professionally competent assistance. a. must identify specific defective acts or omissions. b. Strong presumption of adequate assistance

38 2. Prejudice Prong: Reasonable probability that but for counsels unprofessional errors, result would have been different. a. Outcome orientedbased on reliability of verdict or sentence imposed. ii. Marsh Dis: (1) prejudice difficult to determine; (2) purpose of constitutional guarantee is to ensure fair convictions, not just prevent wrong convictions. b. Conflict of Interest: i. Culyer v. Sullivan (1980) Prejudice presumed only were counsel actively represented conflicting interests and that conflict adversely affected attys performance. 1. Retained and appointed counsel measured by same standards of effectiveness. ii. Joint Representation - FRCP 44(b)(2): Court must inquire into propriety and personally advise each of right to effective assistance of counsel, including separate representation. Unless good cause to believe no conflict, court must take appropriate measures to protect each s right. c. First Appeal of Right: has right to effective assistance in first appeal of right (Evitts) d. Applying Prong 1: Unreasonable Atty Behavior i. Deficient Std: Counsels decisions were not objectively reasonable when made ii. Plea Bargains: 1. Hill v. Lockhart (1985): a. Unreasonable behavior: failure to research parole eligibility rules, gives faulty plea advice. b. Prejudice: i. waiver of host of 6A rights though plea (but prejudice requires more than deprivation of trial) ii. previously rejected similar plea bargain deal. 2. Toro v. Fairman (7th 1991) Unreasonable where court finds atty emotionally involved in decision to go to trial, and would have accepted plea. iii. Ignorance of Law: Unreasonable 1. Kimmelman v. Morrison (1986)(1315) Failure to file suppression motion deficient where atty betrays ignorance of controlling legal standards. a. For prejudice, must show: i. Motion would have succeeded ii. Successful motion would have influenced outcome. 2. Cave (11th 1992): crim atty deficient who completely misunderstands the law of felony murder. iv. Strategic Choices 1. Thorough investigation: decisions reasonable where law and facts researched a. Reliance on plea for mercy rather than mitigation reasonable where could have rebutted mitigation (Darden) b. Arguing innocence rather than mitigation reasonable (Stewart) 2. Incomplete investigation: decisions reasonable to extant that professional judgment supports the decision: a. Failure to investigate and present mitigation is unreasonable (Wiggins) b. Continuance motion denied, atty fails to participate/put on defenseUnreasonable (Wolf 7th) c. Failure to object to directed guilty verdict- unreasonable 3. Failure to notice stray incriminating notation 4. Caro v. Calderon (9th 1999) failure to notify evaluating psych of s brain damage unreasonable where critical and not subject to rebuttal.

39 5. Closing Argument: Yarborough (2003): presumption that narrative choices are tactical, and kosher. a. Failure to make particular arg justified by fear of rebuttal b. Criticizing client may be nec to build credibility w/ jury c. Suggesting atty does not believe s storyharder to overcome. v. Appeals: 1. Failure to Appeal: must show (a) a rational would have wanted to appeal; (b) this indicated to counsel he was interested in appealing (Flores-Ortega) a. Where appeal wholly frivolous, atty must request permission to withdraw (Anders) i. State may require brief on merits of appeal. vi. Per Se Unreasonable: No per se rule, usually. (cronic) 1. Sleeping atty: May be per se unreasonable, but not always. 2. Never passing bar exam: always unreasonable. vii. Applying Prong 2: Prejudice 1. Defn: a probability sufficient to undermine confidence in outcome; more likely than not that defect is but-for cause of non-acquittal 2. Conflict of Interest: presumption of prejudice 3. Death Penalty: reasonable probability that sentencer would have concluded, based on balance of aggravating and mitigating factors, no death sentence. 4. Mistake of Law: Lockhart v. Fretwell (1993): [atty fails to object to unconstitutional aggravating factor] Hold: prejudiced outcome is not dispositive; must also assess ultimate fairness of result. a. OC: court making prejudice determination may not consider the effect of an object it knows to be meritless under current law, even if objection would have been meritorious [and outcome determinative] initially. 5. AEDPA and Habeus Corpus: std for reversal-- must show ct applied law to facts in an objectively unreasonable manner. VIII. DISCOVERY 1. SPECIFICS OF DEFENSE DISCOVERY a. FRCrP: Evidence that must be provided upon request-i. s own statements in response to official investigation, if govt intends to use at trial. ii. s own written or recorded statements in govt possession. iii. Statements of agents legally attributable to iv. s prior criminal record v. Docs and other tangible materials that are: 1. material to the preparation of defense (only related to govts case in-chief, not affirmative defenses (Armstrong)) 2. intended for use by govt in case-in-chief 3. obtained from/belong to vi. Reports of physical or mental exams if (a) material to defense or (b) intended for use in s case in chief vii. Summary of s expert testimony b. Witness Statements i. Jenks Act 18USC3500 (Rosario Material) Govt required to turn over prior statements of govt witnesses for impeachment purposes after they testify at trial.

40 ii. FRCrP 26.2: govt may obtain prior statements of witnesses after direct trial testimony. iii. Some states require, allow, prohibit disclosure of names and addresses of witnesses 2. PROSECUTORS DUTY TO DISCLOSE a. Duty to Disclose: i. Brady v. Maryland (1963)(1001) must turn over evidence which, if available, would tend to exculpate or reduce the penalty. ii. US v. Agurs (1976)(1001)[ args self-defense, fails to disclose victims two prior weapons offenses] Hold: info not material b/c jury knew victim had knife, could have inferred danger; arrest record not requested, did not infer perjury-1. Scotus Materiality Test: Evidence would create a reasonable doubt that does not otherwise exist (undermines confidence in verdict). a. s intentionality irrelevantmateriality based on strength of evidence, not strength of prosecutor. b. Nb: materiality will vary with strength of s case. 2. App Ct Test (overruled): Non-disclosure required a new trial b/c jury might have returned a different verdict. 3. Brenn/Marsh Dis: Maj test creates incentive for to resolve close decisions in favor of concealment. a. Alt test: must prove significant chance that evidence developed by skilled counsel would have induced reasonable doubt in minds of enough jurors to avoid conviction. iii. US v. Bagley (1985)(1006) [Despite s specific request, did not disclose witness contracts with ATF for undercover work] 1. Materiality: only if a reasonable possibility that disclosure would have changed result. 2. Significance of Specific Request a. Blackmun/OC (maj): only important where relies on discloser and plans around it. b. Stevens: request very important 3. Post-Bagley: many courts consider request w/o acknowledging it. b. Applying Brady i. Impeachment Evidence 1. Kyles v. Whitley (1995)(1008) [ suppresses prior inconsistent testimony of witness tending to inculpate a different person] Comments on Bagley-a. Std is reas prob (less than 50%) b. Moving party must show possibility of acquittal (not just hung jury) c. Once Bagley error found, error is per se not harmless. d. Suppressed evidence considered as whole, not parts (whole may be synergistic) e. Prosecutors liable for failure to disclose of other govt agents (cops) 2. US v. Boyd (7th 1995)[drug gang case where corrupt USAs grant crazy favors to witnesses; witness perjury] Posner separates materiality analysis a. (1) Reasonable probability that jury would have acquitted on some of the counts had they disbelieved essential testimony of witness? b. (2) Might jury have disbelieved testimony had they know of perjury? c. Appellate review is deferential, not de novo. ii. Inadmissible Evidence

41 1. Suppression of inadmissible evidence (e.g. polygraph tests) is not unconstitutional (Wood 1988) c. Duty to Preserve Exculpatory Evidence i. CA v. Trombetta (1984) Cops not required to preserve DUI breath samples. ii. Az v. Youngblood (1988) [child molestation, cops fail to preserve semen residue] Absent proof of bad faith, loss or destruction of evidence by cops does not constitute denial of due process. (ignores Bagley for Due Process std) 1. Blackmuns alt test: where no comparable evidence available, cops must preserve evidence with potential to reveal criminals immutable characteristics (w/ exculpation value) IX. GUILTY PLEAS 1. REQUIREMENTS FOR A VALID GUILTY PLEA a. Intro: Prosecutors and judges wield coercive power lawfully b. Test: Plea must be VKI c. Voluntary i. Global Settlements/Package Deals 1. Caro (9th 1996): Package deals not impermissible per se, but judge must be aware of deal in order to make adequate voluntariness inquiry (problem of coercion by co-s) 2. But See Pollard (DC 1992) [ claims coerced into plea b/c of wifes poor health] Hold: Coercion depends on conduct of govt; not factual circumstances a. Coercive: improper pressure likely to overbear will of an innocent person; physical harm, threats of harassment, misrepresentation, improper promises. d. Knowing i. Elements of a Crime: Plea cannot be valid unless knows tha nature (elements) of the offense to which he pleads (Henderson v. Morgan 1967) 1. Not outcome determinative; plea invalid even if atty would have advised to accept plea, even if would have accepted plea. 2. Bradshaw v. Stumpf (2005)(sm107)[ pleads to crime inconsistent w/ his testimony of events; App Ct implies could not understand elements] a. Hold: Suff knowledge where testifies that atty advised him of elements. ii. Penalty Imposed: must have general idea of maximum, mandatory minimum sentences flowing from plea agreement (Goins 4th 1995); precision not necessary. iii. Collateral Consequences: Most courts do not require information re: other consequences (permissive/mandatory deportation, possibility of future prosecution, parole revocation, etc) iv. Pleading to non-Crimes: Plea invalid where action is not a legal crime (Bousleyproblem was that neither judge, prosecutor, atty understood elements) v. Impeachment Evidence: US v. Ruiz (2002) Due Process does not require disclosure of impeachment evidence for witnesses in order to render plea VKI. 1. Policy: Brady v. Md disclosure rule exists to maintain fair trial. Pleas regulated by FRCrP 11: a. requires factual basis for plea b. judge ensures that is guilty of crime to which he pleads (open court confession

42 c. must explain how intends to prove charges. d. Record must contain evidence of guilt of crime. e. Intelligent i. Intro: must be able to (a) work with lawyer, (b) understand proceedings ii. Trial Std: Dusky v. US(1960) must have reasonable degree of rational understanding to go to trial. iii. Godinez v. Moran(1993) Maj (Thomas): Plea std same as Dusky trial std. Rejects stricter plea std requiring have capacity to make reasoned choice between options. iv. Involuntary medication: 1. Permitted for (a) dangerous people; (b) medically appropriate for condition 2. Only rarely for charged w/ non-violent crime, asserting right to bodily control. f. Secret Promises: Blackledge v. Allison (1977)(1065) [ args did not believe he could acknowledge secret deal w/ judge to get reduced sentence for guilty plea] Hold: Habeus petition reviewable where judge gives no indication that deal could be discussed in court. g. Rule 11 i. (a)(2)-allows conditional guilty please ii. (d)- standards for withdrawal 1. any reason before court accepts plea 2. after plea, before sentence if (i) court rejects plea, or (ii) fair and just reason for requesting withdrawal. iii. (e) admissibility of plea, plea discussioninadmissible in future proceedings: 1. (i) withdrawn guilty plea, (ii) nolo contendre, (iii) h. Breach of Bargain i. Santobello v. New York (1971) [2 makes sentence recommendation where 1 promised silence] 1. Maj hold: DCt has option of (a) withdraws plea, or (b) new sentencing under untainted judge. 2. Dis: would give choice of plea withdrawal to ii. Bargain: must be in plea agreement to be enforced (Austin 8th 2001) iii. Breach: 1. doesnt have to make recommendation enthusiastically (unless required by agreement) (Johnson 9th 1999)(1089) i. Conditional Guilty Pleas i. Rule 11(a)(2)- may enter a conditional plea, reserving right to have appct review an adverse determination of a pretrial motion. 1. who previals on motion may withdraw plea. ii. Burns (2d 1982) trial courts should consent to reservation only where appealed issue is likely to be dispositive of case. X. TRIAL BY JURY 1. FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT a. Intro: Enshrined twice in Constitution at artIII2(3) and in 6A. b. Policy: creating a buffer of ordinary people between accused and the state. 2. WHAT THE JURY DECIDES a. Facts: Apprendi (2000) legislature may not remove from jury the assessment of facts that increase range of penalties. b. Materiality: Gaudin (1995) materiality of evidence/facts is a jury question.

43 3. REQUISITE FEATURES OF THE JURY a. Size: i. Williams v. Florida (1970) Scotus upholds six-person jury. ii. Ballew v. Georgia (1978) Five-person jury insufficient 1. Policy Interests: a. Interpositional buffer; Cross-sectionality; Reliability b. Risk of unfair, inconsistent results, less minority presence, accuracy, lost sense of community. 2. Draws line, but admits not distinction between five and six. b. Unanimity: i. Apodaca v. Oregon (1972) Unanimity non required for proof BRD; 9-2, 10-2 permissible. 1. Dis: dilutes BRD standard; important for public acceptability ii. Waiver of Unanimity: 1. Ullah (9th 1992): unanimous verdict right in fed ct cannot be waived. 2. But See Sanchez (11th 1986): permits waiver when faced with hung jury. 4. JURY SELECTION AND COMPOSITION a. Composition: Fair Cross-Section of Community i. Taylor v. Louisiana (1975)(1191) Overturns statute that permits women from getting out of jury service. 1. Hold: Women are sufficiently numerous and distinct from men that fair crosssectionality cannot be satisfied without them. 2. Applies to Jury Pool Venirenot ultimate selection. ii. Duren (1979) Std for prima facie cross-sectionality violation 1. (1) group excluded is distinctive within community 2. (2) representation of group in venire is not fair and reasonable in relation to number of such persons in community. 3. (3) underrepresentation is result of systematic exclusion iii. Distinctiveness test: US v. Fletcher (9th 1992) [college students not distinctive] 1. (1) group is defined and limited by some factor 2. (2) common thread or basic similarity in attitude, ideas, experience. 3. (3) community of interests among members such that interests cannot be adequately represented if the group is excluded. 4. Groups not found distinctive: college students, Indians on reservations, senior citizens. iv. Today: C-S args dont arise b/c of randomness of venire selection procedures. b. Voir Dire i. Fed/State split in process: 1. Fed: judge decides whether lawyers question.; Most States: lawyers question 2. Fed: judges may decide to question based on (1) constitutionally mandated; (2) mandated by supervisory power; (3) judicial discretion. ii. Racial Prejudice 1. Ham v. South Carolina (1973) [ black civil rights worker charged with mj possession] a. Maj: 14A requires judge to interrogate jurors re: racial prejudice b. Dis: should also require qs about beards in 60s civil rights context 2. Ristaino v. Ross (1976) [Scotus reinstates conviction of violent interracial crime]

44 a. Hold: State Judge required to ask about racial prejudice only where racial issues are inextricable bound up with conduct of trial. i. Distinguishes, retreats from Ham. ii. AS: no basis for distinction on the facts. b. Fn: State courts should ask, but not Const required; fed courts required under supervisory power. 3. Rosales-Lopez (1981) no reversible error where DCt refused to ask about racial prejudices where Mexican accused of smuggling aliens. a. Usually better that courts ask when requested. b. Fed Cts required in violent crime case and and victims are different race. 4. Capital Cases: accused of interracial crime entitled to have racial prejudice question (Turner 1986) iii. Pretrial Publicity 1. MuMin v. Virgina (1991) State judge not required to question jurors individually w/r/t content of pretrial publicity exposure. (deference to trial judge; no abuse of discretion) a. Marsh Dis: judge must ask about content of publicity exposure in order to determine effects on prejudice. b. Kenn Dis: findings of impartiality must be based on more than silence to questions asked en masse. c. Excusals for Cause i. Statutory requirements: 1. Unsound mind or lacks qualifications required by law 2. Related to a party 3. Served in a related case 4. Unable or unwilling to hear the case at issue fairly or impartially ii. Imposing the Death Penalty: 1. Witherspoon v. Illinois (1968) Invalidated statute permitting to excuse juror who has conscientious scruples against DP. a. In order to exclude DP juror, must show that beliefs about DP would lead juror to ignore the law (not simply that beliefs would affect decision) 2. Adams (1980) No challenge unless anti-DP views would prevent or substantially impair the performance of duties as a juror. 3. Wainright v. Witt (1985) Witherspoon does not require a ritualistic adherence to std. Must give deference to trial court opinion. iii. Effect of Witherspoon violation: 1. Gray (1987): per se rule requiring invalidation of death sentence imposed by jury from which potential juror was excluded 2. Ross (1988) [erroneous non-excusal, corrected by peremptory challenge] No reversal despite loss of peremptory challenge. 5. PEREMPTORY CHALLENGES a. Policy: Why allow peremptory challenges i. Removes extremes of impartiality. ii. Creates greater acceptance by litigants of results iii. Allow parties to correct judicial errors/refusals to exclude for cause. b. Batson v. Kentucky (1986) Overrules Swains statistics-based std for proving racial prejudice in peremptory challenges

i. ii.

iii. iv. v.

45 Hold: Equal Protection forbids from challenging jurors solely on account of race, or the assumption that black jurors will be unable to judge black impartially. Test: 1. (1) must show prima facie case that exclusion made on improper ground 2. (2) must articulate a race-neutral explanation 3. (3) Burden shifts back to objector to prove neutral reason is pretextual. Marshall Con: Peremptories should be eliminated. Burger Dis: Litigating prejudice is impossible. Ct must either reject peremptories or else accept them w/o limitation. Nb: This is about process, not outcome. Discriminatory outcomes are allowed so long as Batson kosher; and representative outcomes may still violate Batson.

vi. c. Batson Appliedi. 3rd Party Standing: Powers v. Ohio (1991) [white challenges prejudicial exclusion of black jurors] 1. Hold: has 3rd party standing to challenge prejudicial exclusion. 2. AS: thinks standing requirement analysis is a stretch. ii. Civil Cases: Edmonson v. Leesville (1991) Batson applies to civil cases between private parties. 1. State action: found through Courts acceptance of biased act. 2. OC conc (w/ AS): no state action here. iii. attys: Georgia v. McCollum (1992) attys may not use race-based peremptories 1. Policy: State action more present in crim trial context; peremptories are not constitutionally required. 2. Thomas Dis: Black s should be able to excluse white jurors. 3. OC: no state action here. 4. Scalia Dis: Should not follow a bad decision (Batson). s should get the jury they want. iv. Race/Ethnicity: Hernandez (1991) prohibits biased exclusion of Latinos. v. Gender: JEB v Alabama (1991) Court applies heightened (intermediate) scrutiny to review of gender-based peremtory challenges. (Need excessively persuasive justification) 1. OC Conc: would bar gender-based exclusion to s only. 2. Intermediate Scruting: implies Batson applies to religion/ethnicity. a. Di Pasquale (3rd 1988): Batson may apply to Italian-Americans 3. Rational Basis categories cannot raise a Batson claim. d. Batsons Elements: i. Prima Facie Standard: Miller-El v. Dretke (2005)(sm182) 1. Factors Considered: Invites close look at Voir Dire a. Questions asked b. Percentage of challenges to different racial groups c. Comparison of answers between struck/not-struck d. Who actually sat on jury e. Unexpended peremptories f. Rates of striking. g. Proxy characteristics is probative, depending on closeness of relation 2. Breyer: get rid of peremptories. ii. Race-Neutral Explanation:

46 1. Purkett v. Elem (1995) [ excludes 2 blacks arguing long, unkempt hair, mustache and goatee; Lower court says args unpersuasive] a. Hold: Explanation need only be neutral. Persuasiveness irrelevant. 2. Disparate Impact (Bi-lingual jurors): Hernandez (1991) [ ojects to bilinguals who may not listen to translator] bilingual excuse is valid a. Disparate impact is not sufficient for Batson claimneed Discriminatory intent. b. Kenn: unless inherent in s explanation, reason offered will be raceneutral. 6. PRESERVING INTEGRITY OF JURY DELIBERATIONS a. Anonymous Juries i. 2d cir permits where (1) faces serious penalties; (2) had attempted to tamper w/ jury in past; (3) s known associates of organized crime; (4) prior convictions for extortion and narcotics; (5) jury protected from media. 1. Favors instructions regarding presumption of innocence. ii. Sanchez (5th 1996) empanelling anonymous jury is reversible error where (1) not involved in organized crime; (2) no evidence of past tampering; (3) no indication that case would receive excessive publicity. 1. Anonymous jury is extraordinary remedy of last resort. b. Breaking Deadlocks: i. Policy Balance: spur resolution, but prevent coercive influence ii. Allen Charges: (Modified by Webb 8th 1992) 1. Maj of jurors may favor acquittal 2. Govt has burden of proof 3. Both maj and min should reconsider decisions 4. No Juror shoud abandon conscientiously held views 5. Free to deliberate as long as nec. iii. Modified Policy: prevent coercion. iv. Judge not required to instruct jury that free to hang (Arpan 8th) v. Wrong to give charge is nature of split known to judge. vi. Successive Allen Charges: generally not permitted (exception: no deliberation, charge bookends the weekend) vii. DP Cases: Modified Allen charge held permissible where judge polls jury (Phelps 1988) c. Misconduct and Outside Influences i. Intro: Jurors may be disqualified if exposed to highly inflammatory information not brought into evidence. 1. However, Due Process does not require a new trial whenever juror is place in a potentially compromising position. Ct should defer to trial judge ruling. (Phillips v. Smith 1982). ii. Rushen (1983) No reversal where juror complains to judge that witness had killed her friend and judge fails to disqualify juror. iii. Tanner v. US (1987) 5-4 maj holds juror misconduct hearing properly denied despite allegations that jurors had used alcohol, drugs, slept during deliberations. 1. OC Policy: Voir dire and observation by trial participants sufficient to ensure a fair trial. iv. FRE Rule 606(b): permits proof of extraneous prejudicial information brought to jury attention, and proof of outside influence brought to bear on any juror. 1. OC (Tanner): does not apply to allegations of drugs, alcohol, etc.

47 2. Ruggiero (5th 1995) rule bars testimony on (1) methods or arguments of jury deliberation; (2)effect of any particular thing on outcome of deliberation; (3) mindset or emotions of jurors; (4) testifying jurors own mental process during deliberations. 3. But See: courts have hesitated to apply rule dogmatically in face of good faith allegations that jurors relied on racial prejudice (Wright 2d 1984). v. Lies During Voir Dire: Chance of reversal if reasons for lie interferes with impartiality. (otherwise, no reversible error). 7. THE TRIAL JUDGE AND THE RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL a. No directed guilty verdicts. b. Jury Nullification i. Intro: Jury my disregard law and acquit 1. Policy: Completing the law; supplying moral element that law does not address. ii. Thomas (2d 1997) [judge dismisses juror, suspecting that juror was refusing to follow instructions/obey law] Hold: reverses conviction b/c juror was excused for cause 1. Trial court did not have sufficient evidence to excuse juror; However, trial court should not inquire too closely into juror deliberation process. 2. Policy: However, 2d Cir is deeply against nullification (lawlessness) iii. Goetz: judge not required to admit possibility of nullification during jury charge. c. Commenting on Evidence: Most states do not allow judge to comment on weight of evidence or witness credibility. d. Jury Instructions i. FRCrP 30: court must accept or reject charge proposals from counsel before closing args. 8. THE JURY VERDICT a. Inconsistent Verdicts: Powell (1984) convicted on one count of an indictment cannot attack conviction as being inconsistent with acquittal on another count. b. Lesser Offenses: King (8th 1977) entitled to a lesser-included offense instruction where: i. (1) proper request made; (ii) elements of lesser offense identical to part of greater offense; (iii)some evidence would justify conviction on lesser offense; (iv) proof of element differentiating claims sufficiently in dispute; (v) mutuality (both sides can request).
